Don’t Donate to My Funeral — Donate to My Life
The Peace Doctor Documentary

What if one story could heal a whole nation?

I’m Dr. Erica Ford. I’ve spent my life standing between bullets and babies fighting for peace, when nobody else would. I’ve buried too many children. Held too many mothers who couldn’t stop shaking. I’ve walked into chaos and tried to bring light.

Now, I’m telling a story that’s never been told.
My story.
Our story.
The story of how peace was built when the world said it wasn’t possible.

This isn’t just a documentary.
It’s a declaration of life.
It’s the Orangeprint a (blueprint) roadmap for how we heal.
For how we lead.
For how we love through the trauma and rise through the pain.

“Erica Ford: The Making of the Peace Doctor” is a documentary that traces my journey from almost losing my life… to saving thousands through purpose, policy, and prayer. It’s about how we turned violence into vision. How we turned a war zone into a sanctuary. It’s about the fight for peace, one we’re still in. One we must win.



This is for the people who’ve been forgotten.
This is for the leaders who pour out until they have nothing left.
This is for every young person who needs to know:
You’re not alone. And peace is still possible.

But here’s the truth:
Documentaries that matter don’t just get made, they get built.
By people who believe in legacy. Who believe in life.
Who believe we deserve to see ourselves whole.

We’re raising $600,000 to finish this film, to complete production, editing, and get it out to the world. But right now, our first step is hitting the $75,000 grassroots goal together.

Not later.
Right now. While we’re still here.

Whether you give $6, $60, $600, or $6,000—you’re helping to birth something sacred.

You’re helping us say:
We see you.
We love you.
We’re not waiting for funerals to show up for each other.

This is not charity.

This is legacy.
This is medicine.
This is movement.

Let’s be honest America is in crisis.
Not just politically. Not just economically.
Spiritually. Emotionally. Morally.

Our people are bleeding—and the world barely notices.
Gun violence is spiking. Mental health support is shrinking.
The budgets meant to save lives are being cut while our babies die.
This film is our refusal to stay silent.

It’s not just a mirror.
It’s the Orangeprint.
A blueprint for how we move from trauma to transformation.
From mourning to movement.
From survival to purpose.

If we don’t tell our stories

They’ll either erase us, distort us, or write us out completely.
We’re not letting that happen.
