WE'RE SUPPORTED BY YOU
By releasing our films online for free we reach as many people as possible. But this is only achievable thanks to the supporting donations we receive: from individual viewers, aligned organisations, and like-minded philanthropists – we call it Community Supported Filmmaking and we'd love to have you join our community! (Find out more about How We're Funded.)
If you’d like to support us, know that no amount is too small – every dollar becomes part of a fund that helps us make our next film showcasing inspiring responses to our global issues. Check out the five high-impact ways to support us below. Thank you!
Why film?
Because we believe it’s the most powerful way to share new ways of thinking, being, and doing, and to contribute towards creating a new story for humanity to live by so that all of Earth’s creatures can thrive.
Visit the About page to learn more about us, about our ethics, and about how funds are used.
And check out our blog post to learn more about Community Supported Filmmaking. It explains what Community Supported Filmmaking is, why we feel it's the right path for Happen Films going forwards, and the part you - our community - can play in that future.
Five ways you can help increase our reach and impact
Host a community film screening
Film screenings are a great way to connect with your community and can be the perfect starting place for building local resilience.
There are many benefits to hosting a film screening:
use it as a fundraiser for a project, political party or school
it's a great way to raise awareness about local environmental/community issues
it can bring members of your community together who might not otherwise meet
or, hey, just for fun!
