Honoring James Calinda’s Legacy
Donation protected
James Calinda was a bright, creative soul who lived life with passion and determination. As a talented filmmaker, James poured his heart into every project, always dreaming of becoming the greatest Black filmmaker. Though recognition sometimes eluded him, his family and friends saw his brilliance and the unique way he viewed the world. James faced mental health challenges throughout his life, and despite his strength, these struggles ultimately took him from us too soon. His family will always remember him as the greatest filmmaker they ever knew, and his legacy will live on in the stories he told and the lives he touched.
We are raising funds to help cover the costs of James’s funeral services. This is a difficult time for our family, and we want to honor James’s memory in a way that reflects his spirit and creativity. Any support will go directly toward the expenses of the service and help us give James the farewell he deserves.
Thank you to everyone who knew James, whether in passing or as a close friend. Your kindness and memories mean so much to us. Any donation, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated as we come together to celebrate James’s life and legacy.
