NAWIC + HARD HATTED WOMAN
Donation protected
WELCOME TO NAWIC'S FUNDRAISER FOR HARD HATTED WOMAN !!
NAWIC National is proud to host this campaign and we invite you to join us. We are calling on all of our members, chapters, and supporters to help NAWIC reach its goal of $40,000 to become an official sponsor of this groundbreaking documentary film. 100% of your donations go directly to the project.
MAKING A MEASURABLE DIFFERENCE
This year at NAWIC, we have put the focus on how we can "Make A Measurable Difference." So what better time than now for NAWIC to put our money where our mouth is by supporting a very special initiative. HARD HATTED WOMAN is the first theatrical-length documentary film to tell the story of women who are breaking down gender barriers in the blue-collar construction trades. The film will go on to tour at festivals and have nationwide community screenings, as it builds a strong outreach campaign to support visibility, recruitment, and positive change for women in the industry. NAWIC will not only benefit from the exposure gained through this partnership, but more importantly, we will be demonstrating our commitment to supporting our tradeswomen sisters. NAWIC needs to be present in this film and its mission.
FUNDING GOALS
This film has been years in the making, and has received generous support along the way from companies such as Timberland PRO, Turner, Structuretone, Dragados, and more. The film has also received grants from The NoVo Foundation, Fork Films, and New York State Council for the Arts.
The director-producer Lorien Barlow has raised over 75% of the total budget and is now in the process of raising $100,000 in finishing funds for story editing, music composition, sound mixing, coloring, etc. The film is entirely shot and being edited as we speak, and our goal of $40,000 will ensure that the filmmakers can keep working steadily towards the finish line. Many of us have been eagerly following this project for years, and now is our chance to help send it out into the world.
HOW IT WORKS
NAWIC’s 2017/18 approved budget is committing $10,000 to this campaign.
If every NAWIC chapter donated $250, we would easily reach our goal of $40,000.
Please post this campaign to your chapter's social media page or share in a group email. But you don't need to coordinate with your chapter in order to donate on its behalf right now. You can simply donate any amount you wish as an individual (or a company), and simply note your chapter affiliation at the time of payment. If your chapter ends up exceeding its goal, fantastic! Every dollar is needed.
However you choose to donate, please be sure to include your NAWIC affiliation in parentheses next to your name at the time of payment, so we can properly track and acknowledge all contributions. Ex: Jane Jones (0135) or Jane Jones (Baltimore).
Don't worry if you're not a NAWIC member, you can still support the project by donating here !
A LASTING IMPACT
The enduring legacy of NAWIC's support of this project, beyond the film itself, will include:
1) Special thanks to NAWIC in the end credits of the film
2) NAWIC logo on the Hard Hatted Woman website
3) A permanent and dedicated page on the film's website thanking each and every member and/or company who donated to this campaign, including NAWIC affiliation by state and chapter
4) An ongoing partnership with the film, which will reach audiences within and beyond the construction community through screenings and panel discussions at campuses, companies, non-profit organizations, and NAWIC chapters across the country.
