Thank you for this program. I met a wonderful mentor through this program who I still talk to. His guidance in my writing has been invaluable. 

**WOMEN OF COLOR UNITE NEEDS YOUR HELP!**

Over the past years, Women of Color Unite (WOCU) has been tirelessly advocating for equity, visibility, and opportunities in the entertainment industry, but we need your support to continue this vital work.

Unfortunately, several major studios and networks have recently withdrawn their annual donations and sponsorships. Combined with a fundraising gala that did not meet its goals, this loss has put many of our essential programs at risk.

Despite these challenges, WOCU has made significant strides. In 2025 alone:

- We traveled to Sacramento to advocate for the expansion of California’s Film & Television Tax Credit, ensuring that more productions and jobs remain in our state.
- We have consistently engaged with legislators, taking them to coffee and lunch to highlight the realities of our industry.
- We organized community-building events at Soho House and other venues to connect women of color across various disciplines.
- We have continued to support #Startwith8, our groundbreaking mentorship initiative that has paired hundreds of women of color with industry professionals, resulting in increased job opportunities and representation.

These efforts require time, resources, and advocacy power, and without new funding we risk losing momentum at a time when our voices are needed the most.

Please donate today - and feel free to share this with others you think might want to donate to this program, or any corporate matching programs.
