Rising Tides Video Sponsorship
We understand how important and effective good visual storytelling is in raising awareness and inviting supporters into your organization. However, we also recognize that professional production can often be out of reach for the emerging nonprofits doing deep work in our communities. To bridge this gap, we created the Rising Tide Video Sponsorship—an annual commitment to produce and gift one end-to-end video project to a Washington-based organization. We invite nonprofits with annual gross receipts under $1M to apply.

2023 Urban ArtWorks
This fundraising film traces the evolution of Urban ArtWorks from its mid-1990s origins as a localized effort to reclaim Seattle’s SoDo corridor into a premier local nonprofit dedicated to social change through public art. The narrative documents the organization's three-decade transition from a cleanup initiative for court-involved youth into a sophisticated mural arts program that now defines the visual identity of the SoDo Track. By centering its mission on King County youth facing systemic barriers, including low-income, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ artists, the film illustrates how the program provides a professional platform where creative agency is realized.
2022 Refugee Artisan Initiative
Refugee Artisan Initiative (RAI) partners with refugee & immigrant women for an inclusive, prosperous transition to the US through skill training & micro business development. The narrative highlights RAI’s unique "Maker Space" model, which removes traditional barriers to employment by providing industrial machinery, business licensing support, and specialized skill training. By documenting the tangible milestones of this journey—from a first paycheck to the purchase of a family’s first home, the brand video illustrates how the "universal language of sewing" unlocks true economic mobility.
