Please consider making a tax deductible donation to Crave Arts and the All American High School Film Festival this year on Tuesday, November 29th, to help support and develop our inclusive community of passionate filmmakers and storytellers.

As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, Crave Arts relies on sponsors, grants, and individual donations to produce the world’s largest student film festival. Every October, in the heart of New York City, we empower and inspire the next generation of talented filmmakers offering: hundreds of film screenings, the nation’s largest film school college fair, an interactive technology showcase, networking parties and events, industry professional panels and workshops, on-site competitions, and our Teen Indie Awards Show, where in 2022 we presented over $600,000 in prizes and scholarships. Perhaps most importantly, our annual festival helps create a community of shared passions and lifelong relationships. 

In October of 2022, we celebrated AAHSFF's 10th annual festival! Ten years in, and our community is thriving, a testament to the power of believing in the arts and the emerging artists that share their stories with us. The collective spirit of our organization, our community, and all of our year-round initiatives is rooted in a shared passion. A passion to breathe life into stories, to collaborate with others who share your vision, and to create content at the highest level - content with the ability to move viewers emotionally, to inspire with unprecedented style and craft, and to impact real change. 

Our annual festival illuminates the dedication and effort of the students we represent from all over the world, a showcase of hundreds of films as unique and talented as the filmmakers who created them. We continue to be amazed by the exceptional quality of the films we receive. Each year there are more films from more places and perspectives, and more reasons to be in awe of our diverse and talented community. We are grateful to be on the journey with you and honored to see the world through your lens.

We invite YOU to join our mission to provide immersive education with a profound impact, connecting the filmmakers of the future with the rewards, respect and recognition they deserve. Your donation will go directly to our 2023 AAHSFF Scholarship Fund, designed to make the festival experience accessible to students who have demonstrated a commitment to visual storytelling, but who cannot afford to attend.

The number of 2023 scholarship recipients will be determined based on the funds raised during this campaign and we encourage you to share this opportunity with others who share your appreciation of the arts so that we can continue to support, develop and inspire our inclusive community of emerging storytellers.
