Thanks to partnerships with agencies and organizations in entertainment and social impact, E2AC On Campus allows dedicated students from around the country to plan, organize, and activate the Social Impact Film Festival, from creating deliverables, conducting outreach, and accepting selections.

All submissions will be reviewed by our judges, many of whom are established in the film industry and will be providing thorough feedback.
Films that receive awards will be given a certificate and be spotlighted on our website and social media.
The top three films will be offered the opportunity to work with our organization on an impact campaign in which our summer interns will work with the film’s team to craft a campaign plan and help their film have the greatest positive impact it can have.
