  • Shine Global 10 Year Report 2005-2015
    10TH ANNIVERSARY REPORT Inspire Co-Founder and Executive Director Susan MacLaury As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, it’s with a mixture of pride, happiness and some astonishment. If you, or someone you know, makes independent films you understand what I mean. Working in this medium - especially to make documentaries about children struggling against serious odds all over the world – is hard. It takes confidence, support, diligence and most of all, passion… the belief that the stories you tell CAN make a difference. And passion is one resource we have in abundance. As a former social worker and health educator I always imagined that our films would reach into classrooms around the world, and they have. Beginning with War/Dance, we have created free discussion guides and standards-based curricula for grades 7-12 for every one of our films. We added power point decks and fact sheets for university courses and finally also developed arts and media literacy workshops for community screenings as well. With the help of a recent matching grant from the National Endowment of the Arts, we’re now creating an additional outreach effort, IGNITE, to bring our films and newly designed discussion guides to as many as 150 programs serving underserved children nationally. As we begin our next 10 years we are excited to continue working independently, but will also embrace partnerships with other filmmakers. Indeed, over the years we’ve been privileged to meet dozens of talented filmmakers who, like us, believe in the power of film to transform children’s lives. We are now actively seeking partnerships with them to make short and feature-length docs, narrative films, web series, and even an animated TV series.
