CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF PROJECTING HOPE AND CHANGING LIVES

20TH ANNIVERSARY POWER OF FILM BENEFIT

IN NEW YORK CITY ON NOVEMBER 6TH

For two decades, supporters like you have made it possible for FilmAid to train refugee youth to tell their own stories and deliver timely and actionable information to their communities about their rights, their safety, their health and their future.

We hope you will continue to support FilmAid as we embark on the next 20 years Projecting Hope and Changing Lives. With your generous support we can ensure that people in vulnerable circumstances are empowered with critical knowledge and are able to speak up and be heard. Together we can claim their right to a future filled with hope.

OUR VISION FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS OF FILMAID

The work of FilmAid is entering a new phase of growth and development. In response to the growing needs of vulnerable communities, especially the needs of displaced youth, FilmAid is becoming a part of Internews, an innovative, international non-profit that empowers people worldwide with the trustworthy, high-quality news and information they need to make informed decisions, participate in their communities, and hold power to account.

As a project of Internews, FilmAid will have the support of Internews’ over 350 international staff and a network of over 100 local, partner organizations around the globe. Internews’ size and reach is exactly the solid and scalable platform needed to deliberately and effectively expand FilmAid’s work and meet the needs of growing populations of refugees, migrants and other communities in need.

HELP ENSURE THE MOST VULNERABLE VOICES ARE HEARD

Please join FilmAid and Internews as we join forces to meet the challenges facing vulnerable communities around the world. With your help, we can expand our impact, and bring “that sparkle, that magic” to more families, more young people, and more communities who need hope, and demand dignity. Thank you for your support!

Our Mission

FilmAid uses film and other media to bring life-saving information, psychological relief, and much-needed hope to refugees and other communities in need.

Our Vision

FilmAid envisions a world in which all people can lead safe and healthy lives, enjoying full access to information, education and the opportunity for creative expression.

OUR VALUES

FilmAid has an unwavering commitment to our core values and principles:

Access to information is a human right.

Information and education are critical to the health, safety, and dignity of all communities. During periods of crisis, timely and accurate information is essential to securing food, medicine, shelter, and emergency services.

We believe in the power of storytelling and the simple, wonderful magic of the movies.

Visual storytelling transcends language and literacy, communicating crucial information while providing sustenance for the soul. For communities experiencing trauma and starved for hope, the power of film, of a story well told, of a spectacle, of an adventure, or romance can open people’s hearts and minds, rekindling joy and helping people heal. This is especially true for children, who constitute half of the world’s forcibly displaced people.

Communities are the source of wisdom and the center of empowerment.

We value a participatory, culturally respectful, and inclusive approach to social change. A community that speaks for itself is a community that can change and heal itself. FilmAid believes in engaging communities in assessing their own needs and in managing, implementing, and evaluating the programs designed to meet those needs. We are committed to building skills and capacity in the communities we work with, laying the foundation for greater resilience and increased self-reliance.

Humanitarian principles are the basis of all our work. 

We are committed to addressing human suffering wherever we are able. We are dedicated to helping save lives, supporting physical and psychosocial well-being, and promoting dignity and human rights.
