It takes a city...

Seven Days to 7 Day Gig

Thank you to Project Involve of Film Independent (Apply now for next year's program) and the National Minority Consortia for PBS for commissioning this film.
 
Between the Roller Derby Girls and the fever dream flair that guides our design; we are trying to raise at least
$1,000 by April 12th. Why contribute?  You've lost someone and have no idea how to move on.  You believe in the value of traditions, even when you don't always understand them.  You've been through a crisis and need to laugh, because (true story) the movies people talk about on their death beds are comedies. To donate, click here. 

A CONFESSION
I was the girl-scout that never sold enough boxes of cookies. 
I was the shopper who said are you sure? when offered a discount.
I've always been scared to barter and beg; but because my love of film-making is stronger than my fear of offending I'm learning to leap over that moon.

Here are some other ways that you can help out 7 DAY GIG.
