Mission and programs · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

In our pursuit of our mission to help individuals and families facing end of life to heal and connect through video chronicles, the number of cities served in this tax period has risen to 430 in 43 states across the United States as well as families in the U.K. and Canada. This year we continued to interview local politicians on a project on the subject of public service with young people in our community. We had to close our physical office during COVID, but we have continued to provide our services in creative ways that ensures the safety and health of the people we serve as well as our volunteers and continuing our mission.

  • In our pursuit of our mission to help individuals and families facing end of life to heal and connect through video chronicles, the number of cities served in this tax period has risen to 439 in 43 states across the United States as well as families in the U.K. and Canada. This year for the first time since the COVID lockdown, we discontinued remote work and moved into a new office provided by the Hutton Parker Foundation. We share office space in the Arts & Culture Building with other nonprofits such as the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, The Opera Company of Santa Barbara and the Santa Barbara Symphony. In addition to continuing our work with families facing end of life, we conducted interviews with four women we had filmed giving their testimonials for the benefit of people considering utilizing our services. We also assisted several other nonprofits by producing testimonial videos for their fundraising events.
