PCI media helped connect me with the program that best fit with my values and let me make my best impact to my personal commitment in fighting climate change.
The mission of PCI Media resonates with me because it inspires me daily to consider greater, global communities. As a NYC public school teacher, I try to inspire my students to care about the world beyond our classroom and think of long-term effects, especially when it comes to climate change. The opportunities we have as New Yorkers, give us the tools necessary to break barriers not only in our communities but help those in need in other parts of the world. The work of PCI Media is efficient, inspirational and motivating in a way that the organization spreads awareness and helps others take action. I myself learned a great deal about global communities and the needs they have. What impresses me the most is how detailed, informative and transparent PCI Media has been regarding social justice, environmental programs, education and public health. The outbreak of COVID-19 has proven how interdependent we all are as a global community and serves as a testament to the fact that we need to work together in taking care of our planet.
PCI Media's resilience over the past 5 years is an extraordinary story of its own. We are not a large foundation and are quite selective about putting our grants where there is a clear outcome. From Ebola recovery to enabling social justice for women and girls, PCI Media has been a beacon of performance, even in the midst of the existential crisis of the Covid19 Pandemic. Plans change because conditions change. It's great to see an organization that stays on-mission while staying clear headed about the world in which they serve.

I have been concerned about the environment, development and population for nearly 50 years. That is why I have long been a supporter of PCI Media Impact. Their strategy of nudging individuals toward better and more sustainable lives through engaging and realistic media dramatizations is insightful, powerful, humane and manifestly successful. Indeed, it is thrilling to see what they continue to accomplish.

Awesome non profit company that helps so many people all over the world. Their way of telling stories is unique and empowers communities worldwide. They rock! Thank you PCI media impact.
An excellent not-for-profit with a superb body of work and tract record that overshadows its small size.
PCI Media Impact is quite a creative and unique organization that strives to better the world through disseminating informative and educational messages through various platforms. As a donor, it feels great to contribute so that their endeavors reach far wider audiences and their noble mission spreads all across the world.
PCI Media Impact is an innovative leader in using broadcast media to bring about positive social change. During 30 years of work with partners, PCI Media Impact has produced more than 5,000 episodes of 100 programs, increasing knowledge, changing attitudes and facilitating behavior change on some of the most pressing issues of our time, including HIV/AIDS prevention, reproductive and sexual health, child and maternal survival, water, sanitation and hygiene issues, human rights and sustainable development. These productions have reached more than 1 billion people in 50 countries. The organization's most recent work has been in West Africa, where it played a leading role in the Ebola crisis. The #ISurvivedEbola Campaign was an outstanding contribution to bring hope in a region of total despair. By elevating survivors and putting their stories on the air, they gave hope to millions and positive guidance on how to prevent and/or treat this deadly disease. It is truly one of the best ways I know to leverage the donor dollar to achieve results and make the world a better place...one story at a time!
