recognizes the power of film to touch and inspire people, making it a perfect medium to communicate Franciscan spirituality and concern for the poor, social justice, peace and nonviolence. The vision for our films is twofold: to raise funds for Christian charities aiding the world’s poor, and to awaken the hearts and minds to the plight of the poor,hopefully inspiring viewers to serve those in need through acts of compassion and mercy.
A vital part of the way the San Damiano Foundation puts the power of film
at the service of the poor is screening our films at churches,
high schools and universities across America. Gerry Straub is available to speak and screen a film at your church or school. Call us
