ABOUT BENEFICIARY: Femtasia Festival
About Femtasia®
Femtasia® Fest, formerly Les Femmes Underground International Film Festival (LEFUFF), is an official 501(c)(3) traveling film festival. Our mission is to spotlight the works of women, femme, and non-binary creators in experimental and independent cinema.

Beyond showcasing films, Femtasia® Fest is committed to community enrichment and empowerment. Our initiatives, like the nationwide "Books For Babes," bring feminist literature to marginalized communities. Additionally, we extend financial aid and resources to filmmakers navigating film distribution and assisting in advancing their careers.
We've journeyed all across the Southwest, East Coast, and Europe where we have showcased a rich tapestry of films—from cutting-edge psychedelic experimental pieces to profound and subversive documentaries as well as narratives which tackle complex themes of identity and sexuality, and of course highlighting genre films such as horror, science fiction and fantasy.
Our programming has taken place in Los Angeles, San Diego, Arizona, Boston, Portland, and even Berlin! We have shown at historic theaters such as the prestigious Aero Theatre and supported local micro Cinemas by screening at locations such as the WHAMMY! Analog Media and Micro Cinema and the San Diego Digital Gym Cinema.
Mission Statement
1. Equip, inform, influence, and mobilize, women, femme, and non-binary filmmakers in underground media.
2. Transform the landscape of cinema for women, femme, and non-binary filmmakers by creating opportunities and forums that accurately represent them.
3. Create opportunities for women, femme, and non-binary filmmakers via educational resources, wellness fairs and literacy efforts.

WHAT IS A PREPARTY FUNDRAISER?
A Wishlist Foundation preparty fundraiser is a group of fans gathering before a Pearl Jam concert to meet up and make new friends. Add in a charitable cause that you want to support, mix in a raffle and some merchandise available for a small donation and you’re joining with fellow fans to do great things!

The first official preparty fundraiser happened on October 5, 2004 at Humphrey’s Bar & Grill in St. Louis prior to the Pearl Jam VFC concert organized by Brent Hinson and Laura Trafton.
Due to its success, and the success of the 2005 Canadian preparty fundraisers, Wishlist Foundation was federally granted 501(c)3 nonprofit organization status in 2006.

ABOUT WISHLIST FOUNDATION
Wishlist Foundation is a Pearl Jam fan-run grassroots 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting Pearl Jam’s charitable and philanthropic efforts. Inspired by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legends’ music, philanthropy and activism, Pearl Jam fans volunteering with Wishlist Foundation have been fundraising in the band’s honor for the past 20 years.

Conceived in 2004 and officially organized in 2006, Wishlist Foundation has remained a 100% volunteer organization run by fans, raising over 1.7 million dollars for charitable organizations in the arenas of health and chronic illness, environmental causes, arts and education and social change.
“We are incredibly grateful for the decade-plus years of support and inspiration from the Wishlist Foundation's pre-parties,” states Mike McCready, lead guitarist of Pearl Jam. “I think our fans are very proactive in terms of fundraising for events before our shows. They do it of their own volition and they take care of each other and their communities. It always blows me away.”
A pioneer in fan-based viral activism and leader in the Pearl Jam fan community, Wishlist Foundation sponsored events are the go-to destination for thousands of both diehard and new fans of the band across the globe to gather before Pearl Jam and other related concerts, forge new friendships, all while uniting behind causes important to both the fans and band.
Wishlist Foundation is fan-run and not affiliated with Pearl Jam, Ten Club LLC, Vitalogy Foundation, its management or any of its related entities. Tax ID #205497732.
