Transform Homelessness Advocacy Watch (THAW) documentary distribution [updated]

2012-03-03T13:16:33-05:00

The Committee to End Homelessness in Victoria - Non-Profit - www.homelessnation.org The Committee to End Homelessness in Victoria, understands housing as a human right and is producing the documentary film: ˜Transform Homelessness Advocacy Watch" (THAW). THAW explores homelessness by illustrating the interconnection of mental health, policing, housing, and poverty. Free Range funds would enable filmmakers from the streets to reveal the contradiction between the tourist-city image of Victoria, BC and marginalized homeless individuals. THAW empowers participants to tell their stories about homelessness, stigma, discrimination, and poverty. Grant funds will be used for: global distribution (online, film festivals, education), entrance fees for festivals, provide honorariums to film contributors, and in post-production phases to create DVDs.

Hogar Verde - Hybrid - http://hogar-verde.com Free Range could help my cause, because you have the media tools for creative and inspiring messages with original content. My dream is to educate all family members in sustainable living practices through green real tips in our ordinary life. Animations could reach a targeted public and reach all ages and education categories. Short films could be translated in several languages and spreaded over the world. We can not expect that other people will do something with our environment. We must do something now begining in our own homes.

Ending world hunger, one grilled cheese at a time [updated]

2011-06-23T06:51:59-04:00

FeelGood - Non-Profit - www.feelgoodworld.org Conventional service delivery solutions to hunger are founded on a framework of thinking that fundamentally misidentifies who hungry people are. This framework treats people born into poverty as: mouths to feed & as fishermen who need to be taught, reinforcing the powerlessness that creates the conditions of hunger. A new framework is needed to eradicate hunger, one rooted in human dignity, the power of self-reliance, and the reality of our interconnectedness. We envision a campaign that inspires and invites the masses to adopt this framework, generating support for movements like FeelGood, which is ending hunger one grilled cheese at a time.

Bush Warriors Killer Vidz [updated]

2011-06-21T19:17:04-04:00

Bush Warriors - Non-Profit - www.BushWarriors.org Bushmeat hunting, illegal trading of animals (often exotic and endangered), and wildlife poaching are not only difficult to read about, but very hard to watch. Animated videos communicating these topics would further our mission: to create a global awareness about the plight of the world's wildlife and biodiversity. With these videos we hope to reach a broader audience and inspire more people; this war on wildlife can be stopped when enough people stand up and demand it to come to an end! An animation can make the impact we want, and will no doubt save thousands of animals worldwide

When we destroy Nature and kill all the Animals how are we expect to stay alive when our Environment already gone? There won't be any surviving without Forest or Animals....Human beings believes that Planet Earth only belongs to them, but doesn't know without Nature and Wild Life there wont' be any life after that......

Run To End Poverty [updated]

2011-05-21T20:10:04-04:00

Run to End Poverty - Non-Profit - www.runtoendpoverty.ca Run To End Poverty (R2EP) is a team of compassionate runners united for a common cause – to bring an end to extreme poverty in Africa. Since 2007, hundreds of runners across Canada and Africa have run together to raise awareness about extreme poverty, and to build support for Engineers Without Borders’ (EWB) innovative development efforts in Africa. Each R2EP running event is partnered with a run in developing communities in Ghana, Malawi, Zambia and Burkina Faso, where EWB and African partner organizations are working hard to build local capacity and create positive change. Through this connection, we hope to breakdown stereotypes of poverty and change perceptions of the benefits of development by sharing stories of the skillful, optimistic, and entrepreneurial Africans who create opportunity in their communities. Run To End Poverty would like Free Range to help us spread this unique project to a wider audience by building a rich website experience and marketing strategy that will attract thousands of runners and scores of supporters in 2011 and beyond. We hope to incorporate innovative blogging and social networking capabilities to directly connect Canadian runners and supporters with runners and development partners in several African communities.

Big Cats are the part of animal life that begins and ends the circle. Without them the circle has no beginning or an end, we have to protect and provide them there space and place. The land was theirs the life cycle of nature belongs with the Kings and Queens of all things in the animal world that's them. We're taking it away and we need to put it back. We can't honor ourselves without honoring the greatest creature of nature. Respect his place and provide them their space. It is "our" ignorance!!

Certainly we should stop corruption. But how can we stop? The poor and the beggars can't stop the corruption. Only those who can give grants and donations can stop corruption by giving those bucks to non corrupt and just peoples directly through their involvement to public works.

Unplug the Signal: The Truth Will Not Be Televised [updated]

2011-03-01T23:06:11-05:00

"Unplug the Signal" - Hybrid - http://www.unplugthesignal.com/ I am a visual artist; I have begun a campaign to create awareness of the gross manipulation of information by the 6 corporations that control television content in this country. With the average American watching more than 4 hours of television each day, the TV plays a major role in creating the consciousness of Americans. By turning the television off and seeking alternative sources of information, Americans are likely to become better informed, consume less, healthier, and more highly engaged within the places we live. You can help the "Unplug the Signal" campaign by creating an effective online movie.

The Story of Health [updated]

2011-01-18T11:12:30-05:00

Laura Hames Franklin - Profit - www.thestoryofhealth.com The Story of Health is an animation presenting a new perspective on health. With simple, humorous animation and narration, it will inspire people to recognize the brilliance of their healing potential. It will make the connections between between every aspect of their body, mind, spirit, emotions and life. Why do we get sick? What is illness? How are the challenges of our daily lives paralleled in physical ailments? This film will show the factors which build up over time, causing us to experience symptoms of illness or disease. How can we begin to experience healing from within? Using the tools and concepts from BodyTalk, Franklin Method and advances in physics (Nassim Haramein) we become more balanced within ourselves, we create a more balanced world- one that is based on creation and insight, rather than conflict, destruction and consumption. As we recognize the power within us, we are enabled to unite as unique individuals and share our perspectives and gifts. This film will inspire, unite, excite and act as a catalyst to continue the transformation that our world is already undergoing. This is a Global Movement. This is the beginning of a new chapter in health and wellness available to people across nations and continents. May the diversity of our backgrounds supply richness for the chapters ahead as we continue this journey towards a better Earth.
