Mary sharing her story in the United Way gala film

CASE STUDY • UNITED WAY

United Way Food Center

One human story. A clearer reason to give.

A mission made personal.

United Way of Southeastern Connecticut • Gemma E. Moran United Way/Labor Food Center

The challenge

Help gala guests understand the Food Center’s work and its relationship with Easterseals Veterans Rally Point, then prepare the room for a live fundraising appeal.

Our approach

Build one connected film around lived experience. Mary’s story made the work personal, supported by program and community perspectives and a clear path toward giving.

Client feedback
