Fledgling is proud to be a founding member of Impact Partners, an organization committed to financing independent documentary cinema that addresses pressing social issues. Through Impact Partners we invest in a small number of film projects each year. This funding is distinct from our grant program and we are not involved in the initial review process. All inquiries are handled through the Impact Partners review process. We are proud to have supported the following projects through Impact Partners.
“From Born into Brothels to Who Is Dayani Cristal? and projects in between, The Fledgling Fund has been instrumental in the success of projects I and my teams have worked on. As funders and partners, the Fund provides a source of support that allows our teams to build dynamic, innovative projects that have demonstrable community-level impact. And beyond individual project support, the organization has a unique understanding of and vision for the growth of the media impact field. I couldn’t have done my past work without Fledgling’s support, and our growing, evolving field is richer for their guidance.”
