BENEFACTOR + MEMBERSHIP

FILM-ANTHROPY

FILM + Philanthropy = Filmanthrophy

Investing in the CIFF vision and mission to foster a community of supporters who celebrate and invest in the Cinematic Arts.

The Coronado Island Film Festival (CIFF), a non-profit organization, has built a solid foundation as an emerging film festival and have established strong partnerships with the City of Coronado, community business leaders, and residents of Coronado and San Diego County.

IMPACT // The financial investment of our Benefactors and Members is an essential part of our support structure, providing working capital for both our festival strategic planning and our year-round initiatives including multi-generational educational outreach and partnership with other cultural and philanthropic non-profits. Stakeholders and major sponsors have taken notice of the caliber of our Benefactors and Members and the emerging strength of our organization as a cultural powerhouse and revenue generator that benefits all of Coronado!

Our Benefactor levels of giving elevate your experience for both year-round events and during the festival with top-notch perks! We invite you to join us in our Benefactor Circle or Membership today!
