First CMG Fellow begins post at Sailors for the Sea
At our 2015 summer Catalyst Workshops we connected with a great group of organizations, activists and filmmakers — and since the workshops, we've been diligently working on how to continue those relationships. Our most recent news is that we've helped to place workshop Rhode Island filmmaker, Ayla Fox, in a fellowship position with at Sailors for the Sea and ocean conservation non-profit focused on the boating community.
CMG Action Grant Awarded to Hurricane Island Foundation
The Hurricane Island Foundation is the most recent recipient of our Action Grant to support their new "Off-shore, Off-line, Off-the-grid" campaign. We will be providing a matching grant of $9,500 to the foundation for the production, post-production, and distribution of a series of short videos, as well as measurement of the campaign's impact; the campaign will launch in late 2015.
