A Good Week for Good News!

February 12, 2010

A  new study in Psychological Science this week finds that watching people do good things makes you want to do good things also. This is good news for people who like good news, like we do here at Press Pass TV. Turns out, there is scientific evidence to support what we here at Press Pass have suspected all along- that providing quality uplifting news about people that are making a difference our communities can make other people want to make a difference as well.

Also, we’ve got some pretty good news of our own to share- This Spring, Press Pass TV and Dongoson Productions’ Mr. President will be featured in the Emerson Los Angeles Film Festival. Also, we’ll be presenting at two local conferences, sharing what we’ve learned about the role that Professional Development plays in Youth Development. Catch us at the BEST Intitiative’s Youth Work Intensive and the DELTAS Bridging the Gap Conference.

Fundraising Update

December 14, 2009

The support we’ve gotten over the last month has been really incredible. Over a dozen people have donated what they could to bring us closer to our fundraising goal. We’ve raised just over 10% of what we need to get through the next three months. We appreciate each and every person that’s given, and especially those community allies that we know had to dig deep to support our important work.

If you haven’t given, there’s still time. Just click on the donate link in the righthand corner of the screen. If you have given, please consider sending your friends a personal message about why you donated and ask for their support. With your help, we can keep making media that moves well into the new year!

Be the Media Conference

December 14, 2009

On December 3, 2009 Press Pass was excited to be part of the 4th Annual Be the Media Conference at the Non-Profit Center. This was our second year as co-sponsors of the event, and we were thrilled to be a part of this great conference. This year’s theme was The Changing Media Landscape: Opportunities and Challenges for Marginalized Voices and Press Pass TV’s Cara Lisa Berg Powers and Joanna Marinova co-presented a hands-on workshop for participants on social media and how it can be used to advance your organization’s mission.

Cara Lisa Berg Powers was also a member of the opening panel, along with Mary Thang of EthnicNewz, Jason Pramas of Open Media Boston, and Jordan Berg Powers of Free Press. The conference was a huge success, with registration near capacity. Stay tuned for pictures and video.

Congratulations Youthway!

September 9, 2009

Today’s Boston Globe featured the good news that BYOP and REEP’s Youthway on the MBTA campaign has gotten a huge win! Starting as students go back to school tomorrow, student passes will work until 11pm. For more information on Youthway, check out the video they made with us this past spring!

Please check out the Globe article and leave some positive feedback! There’s already attacks from people who don’t seem to understand the power of youth advocacy and opportunity.
