Wednesday, June 2 Video Storytelling as a Tool for Impact

Please bear with us as we are building our new webinar registration platform - if you are a nonmember who would like to attend, please email Amanda Arizola at amanda@philanthropysouthwest.org .

How can a foundation use video and storytelling to engage the communities it most cares about while amplifying the impact of its grant dollars? This webinar will speak to board and staff beyond the Communications Team about how a foundation can leverage these tools to achieve its goals and drive outcomes in its funding areas. We will explore the real-world story of a family foundation, a nonprofit, and a video agency whose shared values and mutual trust led to a storytelling collaboration that evolved the thinking of all three organizations. Using this case as a backdrop, the presenters will provide practical takeaways on how to leverage storytelling for impact and share best in class ways to use video to reach your audience. Attendees will learn 1. Why great video storytelling can be a game-changing form of giving; 2. How to leverage deep relationships to find and tell stories of impact; and 3. What ROI can look like when a Foundation is willing to incorporate video storytelling into its philanthropic portfolio. Presenters:

Scott Faris, Co-Founder, Universe Creative Meg Griffiths , Co-Founder, Universe Creative Christopher Shaw , Executive Director, The George & Fay Young Foundation
