WE BELIEVE HOPE CAN CREATE A BETTER WORLD
We fund and produce RADICALLY HOPEFUL stories that raise awareness about important social and environmental issues.
Whether told through film, photographs, music, or words, stories inspire hope. They change the world by changing how we see the world. RandomGood supports emerging storytellers as they conceive, photograph, film, write, edit, and produce stories that promote better living conditions and fairness, and help educate and activate individuals regarding habitat, wildlife, and climate disruption.
At RandomGood, we believe that to have an impact, stories must be emotionally evocative so that viewers can FEEL the issue. Only then will they care enough to learn about and KNOW the issue, hopefully leading them to DO something that makes a difference.
RandomGood Around the World
We support filmmakers and projects all over the globe -- from Brazil to Kenya and from Guatemala to India, and beyond. Check out the map below to explore the breath of our work.
