How can YOU make profound change?
We are proud to announce that you can contribute financially to seeing this story told, either directly or via the Documentary Australia platform.
Documentary Australia is a unique not-for-profit that supports powerful stories for social change. Since 2008, they have supported hundreds of filmmakers to tell important stories through documentary across seven key areas: Environment, Health & Wellbeing, Human Rights & Social Justice, Women & Girls, Indigenous, Youth & Education and The Arts.
Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status allows independent filmmakers to access philanthropic funding and enables donors to tax effectively support the issues they care about.
If you do not need a tax receipt you can also contribute directly.
