More About Ripple Effects: A WV Rivers Film Series
Ripple Effects: A WV Rivers Film Series is made possible through a grant from Working Films. The poster and creative for this film series were created by Studio Kelsie. WV Rivers aims to utilize our Rural Cinemas film series as a catalyst for raising awareness and fostering action regarding PFAS contamination in communities in Northern and Eastern West Virginia. Our overarching purpose is to empower communities, advocate for change, and mobilize collective efforts toward ensuring drinkable, swimmable, and fishable waters for all residents. Through this initiative, we seek to build and strengthen relationships, expand engagement, and inspire action, ultimately contributing to a healthier and more sustainable future. If you would like to partner with WV Rivers on a future film event, contact us at wvrivers@wvrivers.org or call 304-637-7201.
