Help keep the scanner running.

The gig work that used to cover part of the shortfall has dried up, and I'm not eligible for grants or foundation money. Your donations are literally what allow this to continue.

2026 Operating Expenses

Donate to the GoFundMe

Please help me cover operating costs for 2026. Without specialized equipment for 35mm film costing hundreds of thousands of dollars, preserving filmstrips is time and labor intensive, but it's also necessary, because many of the remaining filmstrips are actively disintegrating from being printed on cheap film stock. I'm willing to put in the time and work to finish preserving the 2,000+ filmstrips I still have to scan. I need your help to keep the lights on while I do.
