We are The Quotidian
Once in awhile, a non-commercial project like ourselves have to go all NPR on you and bring out the charity pledge drive pitch. After all, The Quotidian accepts no payments for the work we do and we have no advertising whatsoever in any of our content – which leaves much of our costs up to viewers like you. We're looking to raise at least $5,000 in the next 60 days so we can continue to do our good deeds and help nonprofits help themselves – nobody ever said lookin' good was a cheap exercise. Can you support us with even a small donation? To show our gratitude, we'll be giving away DVDs, T-shirts, stickers, posters and even Flip cameras (yes, those) as well as crediting you on either our Web site or in an upcoming film! kickstarter.com/projects/hsingyihkai/the-quotidian-tells-the-stories-of-people-finding About us: The Quotidian is an ongoing video documentary series that focuses on people doing good for their communities as well as those who are affected by their work. Stories range from an individual taking personal initiative to improve the well-being of homeless people in his neighborhood to a local business that donates a percentage of sales to charity, for example. We aim to tell stories in the developmental stage – whether it's someone starting an innovative social program or a nonprofit pushing for widespread community action. The individuals and organizations we highlight are able to use our produced pieces for their own publicity and fundraising purposes since everything is produced under Creative Commons Share-Alike license and organizations have been successful in using our films effectively for publicity and fundraising purposes.
