CENIT Keep CENIT Alive!

Infinitude Revolutionizing the World of Medical Apparel Purposely.

Location: Scottsdale, Arizona

No one ever said safety and fashion sense had to be mutually exclusive.  So why does it feel that way when you walk into a hospital?  I’ve wondered that for a long time.  Happy to see Dr. Ortega answering that question!

David

Dither Dither: The D.I.Y. Sound

Location: Springfield, Missouri

In a time where DIY culture is being co-opted left and right, it’s great to see filmmakers focusing on what “Do It Yourself” truly means for music and community.

BensFriends Ben’s Friends 2013 – Building Patient Support Communities

Location: Houston, Texas

This is the third year running Ben Friends has done a campaign to support their incredible work developing patient support communities.  Ben and his partner Scott are truly an inspiration as they continue to run this organization on a volunteer basis, helping so many people who are impact by rare diseases and just need a community of support.  One of my favorite organizations out there.
