Help Get Media That Matters into Classrooms!!

This year, Arts Engine is trying to bring Media That Matters into more educational settings than ever before. Please join our 2010 Peer2Peer fundraising campaign. Make a donation and let your peers on facebook and twitter know that you’ve done so. Your donation and sharing will help ensure that diverse voices and stories are represented in our youth’s educations in a year when our educational institutions, due to budget cuts, could use the help.

Please donate. A donation of only $24 (or the equivalent of $2/ month for the next twelve months) will help get this year’s collection into schools. There are twelve films. And there’s twelve months until the release of the next collection. Screenings in schools cost approximately $250 each. If even 200 of our 20,000 members donated $24, it would add about 20 school screenings in the upcoming months.

We just launched our newest collection on June 2. Media That Matters, with its teacher-friendly curriculum, is a great way to introduce our country’s youth to new and inspiring points of view. A trusted guide of the media that matters, Arts Engine can play a significant role in the education of our youth.

This June we also had the premiere of Arts Engine’s own media that matters. PUSHING THE ELEPHANT premiered at the Human Rights Watch Film Festival. A Peer2Peer donation will help us get PUSHING THE ELEPHANT screened in more venues so that Rose’s story can be seen by all. Work to affect change and join this year’s fundraising campaign!

Thank you in advance for joining us in our annual Peer2Peer Campaign for Media That Matters. After you’ve made a donation, please share that you’ve done so with your friends on Facebook. We appreciate it!
