About the Documentaries

The entire project is made up of seven different documentaries:

  • An hour-long film takes you on a journey across North Carolina to 13 different communities, uncovering powerful stories of giving from people just like you. (Introduced by Bill Friday; Narrated by Ambassador James Joseph)
  • Six shorter documentaries take a look at giving from specific North Carolina groups: Women, Young People, African American, Latino/Hispanic, Asian American/Pacific Islander and American Indian (Narrated by Nnenna Freelon)

The documentaries were produced by North Carolina's own Minnow Media, an Emmy award-winning production company based in Carrboro.
