Because talent isn’t rare.
Access is.

WHAT WE DO

FELLOWSHIPS

We fund and produce short films through programs like our First Cut: Women Directors Fellowship, connecting emerging filmmakers with production teams, industry partners, and platforms for visibility.

PUBLIC SPEAKING

From local elementary schools to prestigious arts conservatories, we offer children creative mentorship and inspiring talks from Jolene and friends of Julie, who remind students that their own dreams are worth pursuing, giving young minds access to the mentorship and motivation they often don’t get anywhere else.

CREATIVE RESOURCES

We provide gear, crews, mentorship, and development tools for creatives with vision but limited access- because sometimes the biggest barrier to success is simply: who’s going to help me make it?

“Julie always lifted others up. She gave everything she had to the people around her. This organization is about continuing that work: so no one with a dream has to walk alone.”

— Jolene Rodriguez, Founder
