OUR NEWEST CHAPTER

Barraz Genesis x Petty Cash

We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with director and filmmaker Kelli Converso on her thesis film, Petty Cash! Together, we aim to bring the joy of filmmaking to underserved school districts, inspiring students through hands-on experience with the art form. In support of this mission, 10% of all funds raised will go toward developing a new literacy unit focused on film and its practical applications, creating a pathway for students to explore storytelling in new and creative ways.
