GFEM sums it up

From The Fledgling Fund

Recently, we have been hearing from a lot of other funders that do not typically fund media that they would be interested in learning more about how creative media can advance their philanthropic goals.  This is great news!  It means, for one, that the tangible impact that social issue media can have is getting more recognition.

We have seen that impact with so many of our grantees and we know that our investments in media can often have exponentially larger results than if we funded the cause directly.  So, we salute those foundations who are starting to feel around in the field and explore ways that media compliments their current funding portfolio.  We would love to explore those ideas with you and we welcome your questions and further dialogue.

GFEM has also recently published an excellent new resource,  Funding Media: Using Film and Electronic Media to Move Your Mission, that we suggest for learning more.
