CINEMA FEMME NFP

Hi, I’m Rebecca Fagerholm, and I’m thrilled to launch this GoFundMe campaign in support of CINEMA FEMME NFP — an incredible organization dedicated to empowering and uplifting female and gender-expansive filmmakers.

Together, we can amplify voices that deserve to be heard and help build a more inclusive and equitable film industry.

Your generous support will help fund:

Workshops and mentorship programs – Providing essential skills, creative guidance, and networking opportunities for emerging filmmakers.

Film programming and screenings – Showcasing short films by these talented filmmakers both in theaters and online.

Cinema Femme Magazine – A platform that elevates and celebrates the voices of women and gender-expansive people in film.

Every dollar makes a meaningful difference — opening doors, supporting bold storytelling, and shining a light on underrepresented talent.

Please consider donating today and be part of a movement that’s changing the face of film — one story at a time.

Thank you for your support!

Dear friends of Cinema Femme,

We are raising money for our Sundance Film Festival travels, and we'd love your support in our journey!

Last year, many of you supported our Sundance coverage during our 2024 fundraiser (here's a link to last year's Sundance wrap-up!). Even though we mostly covered the festival remotely, we were able to cover 25 features by publishing 10 interviews, 12 reviews, and two profile pieces with our small team of four. For this year, we will be traveling to the fest in-person January 23 - 26, and will be covering the rest of the festival remotely. This is a great opportunity for our organization to be at the festival in-person because we will be able to represent Cinema Femme as a non-profit showcasing our membership opportunities, magazine, mentorship program, and film festival.

We have an amazing team that will be traveling with us to cover the festival to conduct interviews with filmmakers and industry people, along with penning film reviews. Joining us will also be our promotional team to help spread the word of how people can get involved with our organization. This will be our fifth year covering the festival, and second year in-person. I went solo in 2020 right before the pandemic.

Consider donating and supporting us as we continue the hard work of elevating underrepresented genders in film, specifically female, non-binary and transgender artists. The great news is that we are now an NFP with a tax-deductible status, which enables your donations to be tax-deductible. Consider supporting us with a one-time donation.

We'd like to raise up to $6K, so every little bit helps!

With gratitude,

Rebecca
