ANIMATING HOPE ONE FRAME AT A TIME

OUR MISSION

AnimAID is an unprecedented fundraising campaign in support of our colleagues in the animation industry who have lost so much in the recent fires.

Formed in collaboration with ASIFA-Hollywood, industry co-workers and animation studios, big and small, our campaign premieres at this years venerable Annie Awards on February 8th. Then, in the spring, we’re partnering with Sotheby’s for a prestigious online auction of animation art, followed by other events to come.

Animation is the most collaborative of art forms and our community has entertained the planet for decades. Now they need our help.

THE GOAL

We are launching a historic fundraising campaign with an initial goal of $225,000 to support over 60 animation families who have lost or been displaced from their homes in the recent crisis. With the full support of animation studios big and small, the campaign kicks off at the ASIFA-Hollywood Annie Awards, and will be followed by a prestigious animation art auction in partnership with Sotheby’s, and additional events to raise a much higher goal of $5,000,000 for critical funds. Join us in this unprecedented effort to help rebuild lives and show our unwavering support for the animation community.
