provides professionally shot, lighted, written, and edited video free of charge to small nonprofit organizations in the Philadelphia area who normally cannot afford them.

On Wednesday, January 28 from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., PHILO Project will hold an information session at the Parkway Central Library in Room 108 (walk through cafe area).

PHILO Project was founded by Gerald Kolpan, a former TV reporter. The organization selects nonprofits which are small, with budgets below $1 million, and genuinely supportive of the community. It has served many well-known nonprofits such as Philly Aids Thrift, West Philly Tool Library, Rock to the Future, Attic Youth Center, and Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens.

The videos, once completed, can be used in a variety of ways, including introducing the organization and explaining what they do to attract volunteers or funders.

Advance registration for the information event is required as space is limited; please contact the Regional Foundation Center, via email: erefrfc@freelibrary.org or phone: (215) 686-5423.
