“Who is your teacher that stood above the rest?” Teachers are thanked all the time, but I’ve never seen an expression of gratitude quite like this. The narrator creatively and passionately expresses his appreciation for King’s Schools teachers by calling them out by name and sharing how they made a positive impact on his life. “But for the first time I learned that a teacher could be my friend.” Mic drop.

Outstanding production, content and message. The student speaking was amazing. Loved his story. Kept my interest. Made me want to raise my paddle and give.

I love the narration by the student and the message regarding the teachers' impact on their students.

Inly's video is super cute and an original way to show the school's changes due to the pandemic. I really appreciate the levity of the video during this difficult time.

Mission: Possible is a fun peek inside Inly School and creatively showcases how they are handling the COVID-19 crisis on campus – engaged teachers, outdoor learning, small groups, protective glass and more. The film culminates with the discovery of a top-secret document where a special seal is detected at the bottom of the letter. With the seal magnified, the viewer immediately understands that all of this is only possible “if” The Inly Fund is well supported.

Compelling parent and faculty voices sharing what generosity means to them and why they support Trinity School. My favorite quote came from the alumni parent --- “when I think about giving, it’s almost like a one-dimensional idea, when I think about generosity its multi-faceted – heart, legacy, impact.” Trinity also tackled why being generous can be difficult. All of their answers were authentic and purpose-driven which made the video compelling.

The messaging from the individuals in this video ties nicely to the school's mission and would connect well with their community.
