On July 11th, 2024, a fire destroyed over 20 homes on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in Arizona. The next day the XVP Studios crew arrived to film a documentary about the Geronimo Animal Rescue Team (GART) that was already planned. Residents watched their homes and belongings burn to the ground, and in many cases, had to leave their pets to save themselves. While some pets made it out alive, many others were either injured or died amongst the flames. https://gofund.me/6aff2bbf This incident has put a spotlight on Julie Cassadore (AKA Apache Jewel), Kiaya Jackson, and Dorothea Stevens, who all grew up on the Reservation and started a non-profit known as GART (the Geronimo Animal Rescue Team). GART has dedicated decades of their own money and time to rescuing animals on the reservation and educating the residents on how to better care for their pets. Through the fire, GART has been helping residents and their pets recover. The battle for GART (before and after the fire) has/will be a long and hard one: The closest vet to the reservation is a 1.5 hour (ONE WAY) drive away. Julie will sometimes make 2 to 3 round trips a day to save animals. That's a lot of gas. Stray and abandoned animals are reproducing at a rapid rate, and though GART attempts to spay and neuter as many as possible (through visiting pop-up vet clinics), the problem is far too overwhelming to keep up with and has become a losing battle. Many of the San Carlos Apache Residents do not have money for pet food and care, so GART (after quickly running out of money from donors) will spend money out of their own pockets to help buy anything the residents need. Though San Carlos Animal Control was nice enough to share a space with GART, GART still does not have a building of their own on the Reservation, and as a result, the members of GART end up taking injured animals into their own homes. GART was, at one point, a 501c3. However, due to accountant errors (not their own), they lost their 501c3 status. This has hurt their ability to receive donations of any kind. GART will not only spend their own money on animals, they will often buy gas, water, and food for the residents, many of whom, are jobless due to generational trauma. Honestly, $10,000 isn't nearly enough to solve the issues that GART is up against. They and the residents of San Carlos need your help. Please donate and share.

Don't just throw the event. Capture it! Why create sizzles of your corporate events? Yes, they're fun to watch and they keep the energy and momentum going long after the event is over. But did you know a great event recap provides a significant ROI? That's because an engaging sizzle reel, along with professional footage shot by XVP Studios, doubles as evergreen content that you can leverage all year long. Share the sizzle on social media throughout the year to remind your audience of event highlights—from awards presentations to clips from inspirational speeches to those timeless party moments that showcase your unique company culture. The sizzle is a great marketing asset to promote next year's event and attract new sponsors. Put the recap on your company website and let that content boost your search rankings.
