Filming For Charities (founded 2021) is a charitable initiative founded by Stéphanie Tumba, it was inspired by the power of art to motivate, spark compassion, and reach out to connect people.
Overview[edit]
Filming for Charities is a venture which pairs natural artistic passion and talents with a drive for generosity, the initiative endeavors to transform and improve the lives of others and to make the world a better place.
Each video created is a unique creative project inspired by a specifically chosen charity, and it is that charity to whom the proceeds from the videos are donated, as well as providing advertisement for the wonderful work done. This is a service provided entirely for free as no charge is made for the videos, and charities are encouraged to reach out if they require help or promotion of any kind.
Filming for Charities brings a unique yet real perspective and sometimes twists to these projects, working as directors, screenwriters, cinematographers, cameramen, and editors, in order to ensure that the videos are the best they can be and to bring the most attention to the charity.
These charities may be local non-profits or nationally famous top charities; they may be chosen in accordance with current events and awareness projects, or they may hold personal significance for friends, family, or loved ones.
Whatever the cause, they recognize the incredible importance of fundraising and of any charitable contributions and pour all passion and hard work into creating videos that are not only individually beautiful works of art but which create real, tangible change in this world by drawing attention to some of the most pressing issues of modern life, from racism, domestic violence, to world hunger.
Background[edit]
Filming for Charities started as an idea to help charities raise funds alongside raising awareness on the cause they defend. Each video created tells a story using the main theme of the charity.
