With AI you could cut the costs of high-quality art 1000x and put significant focus on AI for longevity. 

Beloved Community Cville does the work of telling our community's full story -- historically and in the present. 

Creative spaces are so important for supporting artistic vibrancy. Thank you for all that you do!

This is an important organization and I'm glad to be part of it. 

Such important work BCC does to change the narrative here in Charlottesville - we are grateful!

Long live ATA and its global community!!!

Great place to sit in the dark with other SF weirdos !

With many agencies and non- profits not getting the attention they need to fulfill their miss, thank you Tina Rutsch for supporting such a wonderful cause and bringing awareness to us...keep up the good work!

I cannot imagine SF without ATA. So many nights. So many events. So many shows played at this Mission institution. Thank you! 

We need to keep small, unique, priceless places like ATA supported and running so we all can continue reaping the riches they offer.  

Can Jeremy Rourke do another performance of "I'll be Around-30 years of Artist Television Access?" So everyone can see why this place matters so much?!

I wandered into an Other Cinema show in 1990 and it was a transformative experience. ATA/Other Cinema has always stood opposed to the gross and creepy dominant narratives of the culture, and it would be a huge loss to San Francisco if it went away.

I lived, worked, created and thrived at ATA for 8 years from the day we first moved into 992 in 1987. This donation is in memory of Lise Swenson and Arda Ishkanian. ATA must live. Or else.

I stand with writers and actors and support staff!!

Helping artists actualize their vision since 1965!

Intersection for the Arts is a bedrock Bay Area arts nonprofit that’s dedicated to helping artists grow. Through vital resources, including fiscal sponsorship, low-cost coworking and event space, and professional development programs, we empower people to continue creating, thinking big, and taking weird and wonderful risks.

We believe art and culture are necessary elements of wellbeing. That’s why we serve people working in the arts—from artists to educators to administrators to funders.

We take the stance that artists should be at the top of the systems that were originally created to support their work. Art institutions would not exist but for artists’ creativity, sweat, blood, tears, and enormously generous hearts. We support those who take matters into their own capable hands and make their own opportunities. We stand by artists every day in their efforts to make our communities better, healthier, more exciting and dynamic places to live our lives.

Veterans Collaborative increases access to resources and opportunity at the local level for those who have served our Nation. 

**We believe that local** **access changes everything**—because those who served shouldn’t have to fight for support that meets them where they are.

**We believe the strength of our nation is reflected in how we care for those who’ve served it**. Too often, Veteran and military-connected communities face fragmented systems, underfunded local resources, and missed opportunities to thrive. 

**We believe that empowering Veteran-led nonprofits, investing in community-led innovation, and building trust-based networks from the ground up** will transform how support is delivered—closing the space between need and access.

**We believe that when Veterans lead, communities heal** and that when we collaborate, everyone moves forward.

- **Fiscal Sponsorship** – Full legal, financial, and administrative infrastructure for Veteran-led or serving charitable initiatives. Grow your project with our guidance and support. 
- Mission Forward **Leadership Circle** – Peer-based learning and mentorship groups for Veteran nonprofit leaders through our program, Mission Forward. 
- **RADAR Network** – Our Veteran Community Resource Platform that identifies, spotlights, and elevates local Veteran-serving organizations that are trusted and vetted. 
- **Local Collaborations** – Through initiatives like our Veterans Interstate Network, we foster cross-sector collaborations and and partnerships that build local ecosystems and directly serve high-impact but under-resourced nonprofits.

Veterans Collaborative

National human services organization. Our mission is to foster stability and resiliency, and provide a safety net for performing arts and entertainment professionals over their lifespan.

Founded in 1882, we serve all professionals—and not just actors—in film, theater, television, music, opera, radio and dance through programs that address our community's unique and essential needs.

Employment in any division of the performing arts and entertainment industry is unpredictable. Work is erratic, security is fleeting and health insurance is often just a dream. For all of these reasons and many more, The Actors Fund is an indispensable and deeply significant part of the entire entertainment community.

As a national organization with offices in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, we directly serve thousands of performing arts and entertainment professionals across the country every year, in person and via our online resources. Our programs are wide in scope, responsive in nature and produce significant results.

Your Move envisions a world where people recognize that following Jesus will make their lives better & the world a better place. 

Your Move Collective aims to intersect culture with the teaching of Jesus by placing helpful content and practical next steps where people are and where they expect it least.

Based on a research-backed understanding of the Religiously Unaffiliated population, Your Move Collective orchestrates digital journeys designed to guide individuals from apathy to becoming resolute seekers of Jesus.

For over a decade, Your Move with Andy Stanley--a TV program containing practical, Christ-centered content--aired on NBC after Saturday Night Live and CBS after The Late Late Show and currently airs, on TBN and UPtv, in television markets nationwide.  In 2022, over 80 million messages were accessed via our broadcast purchases.  Another 10 million messages were accessed through other online digital placements.  But viewership has never been our end goal.

Our goal is engagement.

Not simply engagement with us.  Ultimately, our goal is for religiously unaffiliated people to engage with a local church.  Not a small task to say the least.  But one we are committed to nonetheless.  And thanks to generous donations and support, we are making progress.

Your Move Collective, Inc.

A creative studio of writers, composers, and filmmakers on mission to awaken the human heart to experience God's love and truth

Young people today spend one-third of their day in front of a screen, and the majority of these young adults will stop attending church by College.

**Hollywood content has grown darker and darker.** A recent study found that over 80% of top-grossing films now feature explicit violence, occult themes, or sexual content.

It’s no longer entertainment; **it’s worldview formation.** And the next generation is being shaped by it.

What are we as the church doing in the wake of this crisis in our culture? 

How are we working to replace the stream of dark entertainment that is leading millions to depression and hopelessness?

[http://www.firelightcp.com](http://www.firelightcp.com/)

**OUR VISION**
We are a studio of writers, composers, actors, and filmmakers creating content for screens and stages to fight against Hollywood’s lies with the power of truth.

**OUR MISSION**
We create truth-centered stage and film productions that carry the presence of God into homes, theaters, and digital spaces, revealing God’s heart and offering a powerful alternative to Hollywood. We equip creatives to tell stories that challenge culture, exalt truth, and point people to Jesus.

**WHAT THIS $175,000 WILL ACCOMPLISH**

Over the next 12 months, we’re launching a content engine:

- Writing our next three productions.
- Hosting our fourth annual Creative Conference.
- Cinematic shorts designed for maximum impact on social media. These powerful, scroll-stopping 5–60 second clips will feature:
    - Story moments from existing films
    - Original scores and voice-overs
    - Evangelistic, artistic, and emotionally compelling messaging

This phase is not just content creation; it’s brand and mission establishment.

**WHAT THIS WILL ALLOW US TO DO**

✅ Attract Views: Repurpose completed films into reels and shorts tailored for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

✅ Position Us for Studio Partnerships: We’re already in conversation with several faith-based studios actively looking for content. These shorts show them what we can do and pitch our next several full-length films.

✅ Fuel Our Nonprofit’s Sustainability: With this digital reach, our nonprofit will gain visibility and increased audience support to attract the next major wave of funders and studio partners.

We empower refugees by helping them reclaim access to education, develop modern media skills, and pursue professional employment.

At ReFOCUS Media Labs, our mission is to empower asylum seekers and refugees by equipping them with modern media skills to overcome the challenges they face, such as limited access to education, language barriers, financial constraints, mental health support, skills training and job placement. 

US-BASED DONATIONS ARE 100% TAX DEDUCTIBLE

Through our three Media Labs (Lesvos, Athens, Krakow) workshops and original content productions on location (Amsterdam, Berlin, Athens, Krakow) we provide comprehensive education in photography, filmmaking, audio engineering, and graphic design. Moreover, we actively collaborate with our students in the production of impactful dramatic films and documentaries.

Established in 2017 in Lesvos, Greece as a pilot project when we supported the residents of the infamous Moria refugee camp. in 2019 we officially registered ReFOCUS Media Labs as a foundation in Poland, and started formalizing our work. In 2022 we expanded our efforts by adding new media labs in Athens (GR) and Krakow (PL).  Athens was established to support refugees who struggled to secure access to education and job placement in the Greek system, and Krakow was created to support the massive influx of Ukrainian refugees who fled to Poland after the full-scale Russian invasion. Our work throughout our global network of media creation labs demonstrates our commitment to empowering our community members, and ensuring they have a seat at the table in determining our present and future direction. 

Our mission is to transform lives through education, career training, and psychosocial support, and ultimately sustainable employment. 

In Greece, we primarily work with minors and young adults, who are either stuck in the asylum system or struggling to integrate after receiving minimal asylum protection.  In Poland, our focus groups are women and young adults who fled the war, and now put down roots in Poland.  A key highlight of our training is the creation of professional portfolios, an essential tool that enables our beneficiaries to effectively showcase themselves to potential employers. This part of our program is particularly important as many refugees arriving in Europe have faced educational disparities due to conflict, poverty or discrimination in their home countries. Even those who have a university degree often struggle to be recognized in Europe as education systems in their home countries often fail to meet EU standards. As a result, many higher education graduates are forced to adapt and accept employment well below their skill and education level. In most cases this leads to exploitation on the European labor market.

Our programming aims to break the cycle of disadvantage that refugees and asylum seekers encounter in the labor market. By providing a platform for our students to showcase their original work, share their stories, and employ them as teachers, lab coordinators and co-creators we empower them to become skilled professionals within the global media industry. But our work goes beyond the technical training by providing foundational support and safe spaces for people with refugee backgrounds to be accepted and flourish. Put simply, we treat the whole human being. 

Since our establishment in 2017, we have successfully certified hundreds of media students, produced feature films and music videos; internationally published original photography and graphic design, and collaborated with mainstream media partners on investigative reportage.

We've been featured in National Geographic, collaborated on investigative reports with Forensic Architecture, Human Rights Watch, BBC Newsnight, Aljazeera, the Guardian, and BBC Panorama, and also produce our own original podcast "Fractured", which focuses upon refugee issues and human rights violations in Europe and around the world.

What sets ReFOCUS apart is our dedication to mentoring students beyond the traditional classroom setting. We actively collaborate with our students to create compelling films and documentaries based on their own scripts and concepts. Since 2019 ReFOCUS has produced several films directed, filmed and edited by our students and alumni including  “Even After Death”, “Nothing About Us Without Us”, “Dancing Bells”, “Dead End”, Interview" and "Erantzun", all of which were written and directed by community members. 

“Stitches” - our latest film is currently in post production and will premiere in March 2024 at Movies that Matter Film Festival. Our films and work has been internationally recognised and showcased at prestigious film festivals worldwide, including the Human Rights Film Festival Berlin (DE), Movies that Matter Film Festival (Hague, NL), CPH:DOX (Copenhagen, DK), Melbourne International Film Festival (AU), Rotterdam International Film Festival (NL), IDFA (Amsterdam, NL), New Delhi International Film Festival (India), the World International Film Festival (Amsterdam, NL), and the (in)Justice Film Festival (Chicago, US) and many more. 

In recent years we have expanded to reach larger audiences and provide even more community members with employment and pathways to develop their own careers as freelance media creators. We also take a local approach to ensure the settled communities we work with have foundational support. A great example of this local approach is our Art Under Pressure Arts Festival, which was inaugurated in Athens, Greece (May 2023). The festival provided a platform for artists from Athens, both from within our community and the greater cultural community, to showcase their music, art, performance, design, photography, films and critical reportage on issues the community faces. In 2024 the festival will travel throughout Europe and North America in an effort to activate new local communities of artist who can learn from one another and create together. 

At the heart of our organization is a fundamental belief that individuals can make a difference in the issues they see in the world. Our extensive experience in the field working on the front line of the "refugee crisis" in Europe proves that civil actions can have a massive impact in the lives of people at risk, especially when media and governments claim otherwise. These challenges are not intractable, rather they are opportunities for us to think creatively, and work collectively to ensure we build the societies we know are possible. 

And so we remain committed to helping people with real lives in crisis develop the real skills needed to pursue the real futures they envision. No matter how many times the fast news frames people in need as "takers" and "burdens", we are proving every day that it is possible to cultivate givers who enhance and power our society into the future.

Educational media that ignites curiosity and long-term thinking through science, culture, and ideas shaping our shared future.

**Our Mission**
Accelerator Media ignites fearless curiosity and bold, forward-looking perspectives on humanity’s future through transformative storytelling. Guided by this perspective, we create compelling media that explores human potential, fosters global connection, and inspires a shared vision for the future we can build together.

**Our Vision**
We imagine a future where curiosity unites us, exploration—grounded in scientific humility—broadens our understanding, and long-term thinking shapes a collective path of discovery, connection, and possibility.

**Why Accelerator Media?**
In today’s media landscape, content is often designed to provoke quick reactions, amplify division, and reward short-term attention. This constant cycle of distraction is eroding our ability to think critically, reflect deeply, and engage with the complex issues shaping our shared future. There is a growing need for media that encourages curiosity, imagination, and long-term thinking—especially in an increasingly divided world.

Accelerator Media exists to meet this need. We produce thoughtful, curiosity-driven content that invites reflection over reaction and exploration over blame. Through our growing portfolio of original podcasts, we bring together leading voices in science, technology, and the humanities from around the world—fostering global dialogue, and inspiring audiences of all ages to think more deeply about our shared future. With support, we can expand our reach, elevate production quality, and make meaningful media more accessible to those seeking substance and connection in an increasingly fragmented world.

**Our Work**
Accelerator Media is building a dynamic portfolio of media initiatives designed to inform, inspire, and empower curious minds to become world-changers. Our core projects include:

●      **[Curiosity Entangled](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)**[ ](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7jBCBttxtlQ1HeE2Nf2pVc6)– *A* unique, non-hosted podcast bringing together visionaries from different disciplines for conversations driven by mutual curiosity. At the heart of our work, *Curiosity Entangled* exemplifies our mission by weaving interdisciplinary insights into a tapestry of discovery. These dialogues reveal unexpected connections, spark fresh ideas, and offer bold answers to humanity’s toughest questions.

●      **[Ignition Sequence](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7gQX6xSAT9wArswbB7Gdjen)** – A video podcast exploring the big ideas shaping science, technology, culture, and the humanities, and how they shape the future.

●      **[Go! For Launch](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAmp64147-7iU0d0Wxa145AioTck3xPf1)** – A podcast guiding young adults toward meaningful STEM careers, blending inspiration with practical insights from global experts and educators.

●      **Future Documentary Projects** – High-quality documentaries and cinematic explorations—around the world and beyond—that take deep dives into pressing questions about humanity’s future, including a planned docuseries evolving from *Curiosity Entangled*.

**Our Impact**
Accelerator Media launched its flagship podcasts, Ignition Sequence and Go! For Launch, to immediate success, garnering over 670,000 YouTube views and 1,500 subscribers in just the first ten weeks, demonstrating significant public interest. This rapid growth, driven entirely by volunteer efforts, validates the demand for content that explores profound questions and career paths in science, technology, and culture, and signals our potential for even greater impact as we expand.

**Primary Platforms**
Currently, Accelerator Media distributes content primarily through YouTube and leading podcast platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts. Our ambitious growth strategy includes future collaborations and distribution through major platforms such as PBS, Netflix, or Amazon Prime, especially for our documentary-focused project, Curiosity Entangled.

**The Need for Support**
At Accelerator Media, **we believe that knowledge drives the future**—shaping the ideas, innovations, and collective vision that will define humanity’s path forward. To produce this transformative content at scale, we need the financial resources to grow our team, enhance production quality, and expand our reach.

To date, all of our work has been accomplished by a dedicated volunteer team operating with minimal funding. This early momentum is a testament to the strength of our mission and the public demand for thoughtful, future-focused media. Now, to meet that demand and ensure long-term impact, we must transition from a volunteer-led effort to a fully supported organization with the capacity to grow.

With a fundraising goal of $1.5M, we aim to:

●      **Staff**: Hire producers, an education manager, and a marketing specialist to sustain and amplify our work.

●      **Operations**: Fund legal, accounting, and administrative essentials for stability and compliance.

●      **Production**: Boost quality for podcasts and documentaries, crafting stories that captivate and educate.

●      **Reach**: Expand globally through partnerships, digital platforms, and new media channels.

●      **Community**: Nurture a network of lifelong learners with evolving content, live events, and interactive forums.

**Why Your Support Matters**
Imagine a world where everyone embraces a century’s-thinking mindset and sees a path to shape tomorrow. A world where curiosity brings us together, exploration cuts through the noise of division and discovery unlocks the full potential of humanity.

That’s the future we’re building—with your support.

We invite you to ignite curiosity and inspire a future shaped by exploration and long-term vision. Your support empowers educational media that sparks curiosity, encourages critical thinking, and explores what’s possible for our shared future.

**Together, let’s spark the curiosity that shapes tomorrow.**
