What is 1000 Ripple Effects Official Launch?
I have put together the 1000 Ripple Effects film festival to support the opening and official launch of the 1000 Ripple Effects Project. I am opening a community center – A Place To Call Home – Creating a safe space for young people aged 18 and older who have left the foster care system. The statistics show, once a 18 year old leaves foster care there is 71% homelessness and 47% unemployment. These kids have no one to rely upon and no one to depend on in life. They are making their own way. A Place To Call Home aims to reduce homelessness and unemployment for these young people.
“Success is about how many people lived a better life because you lived.” ~ Stacey Huish
Your film would be an amazing contribution to the entire project. Your ability to capture and express messages through film will hold peoples attention and get really important messages across to members of the community. People relate to film, people understand film. Your film is going to be Making A Massive Difference to the lives of young people every day.
