Fighting income and education inequality

one story at a time

^ Documentary of our 2018 program

mid-image.jpg

Many underfunded schools in low income communities do not prepare students for academic, professional, and personal success. Every high school graduate should know how to:

​

  • Work effectively in a team

  • Manage their time

  • Plan for the future

  • Reflect and grow from past mistakes

  • Think critically

​

Test-oriented education doesn't teach any of those skills. Project-based learning does.

​

Storyboard uses the power of project based learning to set low income students up for success. By teaching them valuable digital storytelling skills, students not only gain a technical education worth thousands, but also develop the self confidence to be bold and dream big.

Unlike other filmmaking programs, Storyboard:

​

  • teaches documentary filmmaking and photography, giving students the tools to directly tell their stories. 

​

  • partners with organizations and schools to run programs that are free and accessible for the students who need them most.
