We have a nominal, suggested donation of $10-$20 which, if most chip in, will bring us to our modest goal to allow us to shoot story #3, JOSE. Of course, if you'd like to be a superstar and have the deep pockets for it, you can donate more to allow us to shoot stories four and five to complete the feature. Any donation will give you a "thanks" credit but donations of $750 and more will give you a producing credit.
You can donate at the screening or ahead of time online. Look to the left for the donate button.
