Tell Important Stories:
Through ConnectHER Film Festival, students use film and media to tell stories that bring awareness to critical issues facing women and girls locally and globally, and activate audiences to do something about it!
Learn About Filmmaking:
Many of our ConnectHER entrants are first time filmmakers. Students learn about basic filmmaking and women's issues as they journey on the road to great story-telling. Submitted films should have cinematic value.
Help Pay for College:
Students enter their films in the acclaimed annual ConnectHER Film Festival for a chance to win scholarship awards and attend the ConnectHER Red Carpet Awards Event.
