Our mission is to help those with Neuroendocrine tumors and carcinoid to share challenges and experiences, learn about prognosis and treatments, and improve communications between the medical community, patient and caregivers. By providing opportunities for our members to connect with others who have these rare illnesses we will enable them not only to get their questions answered, but also to give and receive emotional support. In addition, we aspire to bring greater awareness to the medical community, and the public so as to promote earlier detection and treatment of these often unrecognized illnesses.

In 2023, the Hutchings Museum joined the film as the fiscal sponsor. They are the perfect fit because they have deep roots in projects that support the Independent Trekking Guide Cooperative and help the people of KUMARI.  All revenue from the film is being donated to the Museum which will then direct the funds directly into humanitarian efforts in KUMARI.

Third World Newsreel (TWN) is an alternative media arts organization that fosters the creation, appreciation, preservation and dissemination of independent film and video by and about people of color and social justice issues.

It supports innovative work of diverse forms and genres made by artists who are intimately connected to their subjects through common bonds of ethnic/cultural heritage, class position, gender, sexual orientation and political identification. TWN promotes the self-representation of traditionally marginalized groups as well as the negotiated representation of those groups by artists who work in solidarity with them.

Ultimately, whether documentary, experimental, narrative, traditional or non-traditional, the importance of the media promoted by the organization is its ability to effect social change, to encourage people to think critically about their lives and the lives of others, and to propel people into action.

Lucas, Mohamed, and André have seen the bleak difference between having a disability where you have hope and societal support, versus what it looks like when you don't. Even places where you are seen as cursed or less then human. This is why we created the Lowest Highest Foundation. Beyond expeditions, films, and direct contact with affected communities, the organization is taking a narrow and deep approach - standing up individuals with longitudinal support to help them pursue a fulfilling life. We believe there's no better way to change minds then to see what is possible from local role models.

Through cultural exchanges, we connect young people from rural and indigenous communities which are threatened or recovering from reservoir and dam development. These historically underrepresented communities have been left out of traditional top-down decisions for river development that ultimately damage the health of their rivers and communities. Our students do not have the means to travel, nor have they been exposed to opportunities to participate in river recreation, meet people from other cultures, interact directly with scientists, politicians, and community leaders. Students gain a deeper sense of purpose, which extends far beyond individual growth, as they discover that they have the power to be a voice for their communities and their rivers. As we continue to create opportunities, where they can take positive action on issues, students are able to improve their communities for decades.

As the last big cat surviving in the eastern United States, the panther is an emblem of our once connected world. An icon of our last wild places. A vision of what could be again. Through impactful storytelling, field programs, and conservation campaigns, the Path of the Panther Project works to inspire the protection and formal recognition of the land the Florida panther needs to survive — the Florida Wildlife Corridor — which serves both humans and wildlife. What began as a moonshot photo and film mission is evolving into a movement. The panther, one of the most elusive and endangered wild cats in the world, has been the catalyst for a visionary idea. In 2021, the passage of the Florida Wildlife Corridor Act became the first legislation of its kind - a blueprint for addressing habitat fragmentation and species extinction across the globe. Today, the movement continues to grow. The world stands at a crossroads - and the panther is leading the way.

The Beluga Whale Sanctuary is home to Iceland's only Puffin Rescue Centre, which takes in pufflings (baby puffins) and puffins found in Vestmannaeyjar which need some extra care. Most of these birds are rescued by the local Puffling Patrol, which works in cooperation with the Sanctuary. Some are brought in by local residents for review, treatment and possibly release if they are fit and ready. Admission to our visitor centre and donation help support the care of injured puffins, as well as those which cannot be released.

A pragmatic initiative to elevate deaf and blind audiences’ access to and participation in theatrical independent film. While personal captioning (for hearing-impaired audiences) and audio description (for vision- impaired audiences) have been impactful accessories in major theatre chains and on streaming platforms, these technologies have largely leapfrogged film festivals and touring programs -- the venues where our society’s most pressing and daring films are curated and find their first audiences.

The Accessibility Lab will also cultivate accessibility as an artistic tool for filmmakers, and provide them financial and practical support to create captions and audio description. We will also work with festivals to showcase films with accessibility assets, integrate accessibility hardware, and to customize best practices for sustainable engagement with more inclusive audiences.
