Welcome to the Community Film Fund!

A matching fund to help smaller non-profits make impactful videos for their branding, marketing and fundraising.

The CFF will “match” monies up to $5000 per organization. A letter stating that the funds have been raised is a requirement with the grant application. We believe the Community Film Fund will help give a voice through video to our local organizations as well as create jobs for our local filmmakers.
