Help True/False’s Education Program Receive a $25,000 Grant From State Farm Neighborhood Assist

True/False’s education program has been selected as one of the top 200 causes in the running for State Farm’s Neighborhood Assist program. Now we need your help to get us in to the top 40 so that we receive a $25,000 grant! Simply go here and cast your vote for True/False For All! You can vote each and every day until June 3. You get 10 votes a day, but if you check the box to use your remaining votes you can cast all ten at once.

Please vote often and help us spread the word about this campaign. It may seem silly, but this money will be very important to the future of our education program. In the days ahead, we’ll be sharing testimonials about what these efforts have meant to students and teachers in our community.

Over the past 12 years, our education program has offered unique field trips to thousands of students, organized hundreds of filmmaker meetings with students, teachers, and community groups and engaged thousands of people in the True Life Fund, our annual philanthropic effort thanking the subject of a documentary film. In the months and years to come we want to cultivate deeper, year-round ties with community organizations, create media-literate, artistic, savvy high school and college students who encounter other cultures in a meaningful way and nurture the appreciation of theatrical experience as important part of public life.

Please take a few minutes and help us now.
