WHY DONATE?

You Believe in the Power of Storytelling

Founded in 1973 as Women In Film Los Angeles, WIF advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries—in front of and behind the camera, across all levels of experience—to achieve parity and transform culture. WIF believes that storytelling has the power to change culture. Yet, in the most powerful storytelling industry in the world women, non-binary, and trans people are consistently undervalued. Women in the screen industries are paid 38% less, receive fewer promotions, and despite the progress of #MeToo, 7 out of 10 women are still experiencing abuse and harassment in our industry.

You Want to See Change In Our Lifetimes

Now more than ever, we must pave the way for women, nonbinary and trans creators to tell the stories that shape our culture. This work takes investment and committed partners who can help raise the visibility of our work in this industry so we can continue to do what we do. Now is the moment to step up and support WIF in our mission to pave the way for the voices of women, nonbinary, and trans people in the stories that shape our culture. If we don't take action now, we could very well watch 50 years of progress roll back.
