I loved everything about this video. I felt like I was on the journey with this family and you truly feel how much the school meant to them. I got choked up at the end. What a wonderful way to showcase the impact of a McCallie education and boarding school in general.
Outstanding. A beautiful, compelling story told by parents and brought to life.

I watched this video through a couple of times, and each time, CHILLS! Its simple and brief message powerfully and clearly answers the question "Why Give?" with emotionally evocative music, videography, and language. One of the best annual giving videos I've seen.
I loved the energy of this video. It is a creative use of the "fund" ask by bringing in all the reasons one should give. There is no direct ask by a person, but it leaves you wanting to give.

Very fun and well executed, and I especially appreciated how well coordinated this was in terms of involving a wide swath of school community members.
Newark Academy giving day videos are always clever and fun. You can feel the joy of community!
