"There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about." – Margaret J. Wheatley
In April of 2018 SL Films and Ethos partnered together to create an inspirational video for their annual Ovation Gala. The video highlighted a talented student named Davaste that would be performing at this years Gala as well as raising awareness to support the statewide work of Ethos.

BRIAN GRANT FOUNDATION
SL Films, The Brian Grant Foundation and Grafletics joined forces to help the fight with Parkinson’s. The video told the story of both Brian and Rick and on how they were both effected by the disease and what they could do to fight it together. Grafletics donated 10% of all sales to the foundation.
The Brian Grant Foundation provides proven tools to improve the well-being of people with Parkinson’s. BGF was established in 2010, following Brian’s diagnosis in 2008 at the age of 36. Though there is no cure for Parkinson’s, exercise, nutrition and a supportive community can help manage symptoms, maintain overall health and prevent other serious illnesses.
