Donate to EVC in 2011! There Is Still Time Left!
EVC’s programs provide students with transformative experiences. While less than two-thirds of NYC students graduate in four years, over 90% of EVC’s student filmmakers graduate high school. Most go on to college, and many work in media careers.
But we need your help to sustain this work. Please give generously to EVC and help us reach as many young people as we can.
