We mentioned this event earlier on this blog, so we figured we should update everyone on the outcome.
NTEN rockstar member David Neff, along with his co-organizers, launched the first ever Nonprofit Film Festival this year. Their project, Lights. Camera. Help!, had an open call for submissions of films made by nonprofit and advocacy organizations that demonstrated their missions.
There were 140 films submitted from around the world, and the 20 finalists were screened at the festival, July 31st - Aug 2nd. The judges had to choose one winner, and it was: "Art from the Streets," directed by Layton Blaylock. All the proceeds from the film festival go to the organization or cause of the winning film. How cool is that?

Nice work. Nice cause. Rock on!
