Help Human Rights Screened Foundation by Providing backpacks for the 50-member crew for To carry around items such as stationery & Meals
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
As we prepare for the Mandela Day Moral Regeneration Month Film Festival inside a correctional facility this July, we’re assembling a committed crew of 50 individuals, including parolees and Human Rights Screened Foundation staff & volunteers, who will handle technical support, production, and logistics throughout the event. We are requesting 50 durable backpacks to equip our crew with a professional, practical way to carry essentials like scripts, stationery, personal items, snacks, and gear. These backpacks won’t just serve a functional purpose — they will also: Boost morale and pride by giving the team a shared identity. Help crew members feel valued, respected, and prepared. Offer a practical resource that they can continue to use beyond the event as they rebuild their lives. This small but meaningful item adds structure, dignity, and cohesion to the team — and directly contributes to the restorative goals of the festival. Each backpack is a symbol of readiness, respect, and the promise of a second chance.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
