PLEASE HELP US RAISE $50,000 to fund the Mentorship Program.

Alishe Beardeaux and Erin Galey on the set of GIRLTRASH: All Night Long

We ask you to support the only non-profit organization actively teaching, mentoring, providing access and opportunity for young filmmakers to get involved and learn.

The Film and Television industry is one of the most competitive industries in the World. To succeed in this industry is especially difficult, since it remains an apprentice industry where 98% of what you must know to succeed can only be learned on the job.

THAT IS WHERE YOU COME IN!
The 2012 Mentorship Program needs your support.

Below are some of the much appreciated and crucial ways you can support POWER UP and the MENTORSHIP PROGRAM:

1. You can read more about the MENTORSHIP PROGRAM here.


3.  JOIN POWER UP (even if you're not in the business) to support the continued goals of making quality lesbian and gay film and get to see all our short films free.

4. BUY ITTY BITTY TITTY COMMITTEE.
