LUNAFEST Breast Cancer Fundraising Film Festival

LUNAFEST, a fundraising film festival dedicated to promoting awareness about women's issues, highlighting women filmmakers, and bringing women together in their communities, is holding its premiere event at the Rio Theater in Santa Cruz on Saturday, January 26, 2008.

Illustrated through nine films by women filmmakers this unique film festival will highlight women as leaders in society. The films range from animated shorts to fictional drama, and cover topics such as women’s health, body image, spirituality, relationships, cultural diversity, and breaking barriers.

All proceeds from the LUNAFEST premiere will go to WomenCARE, the UCSC Women’s Center and the Breast Cancer Fund. Thus far, LUNAFEST, which is sponsored by LUNA, the Whole Nutrition Bar for Women, has raised over $100,000 for Breast Cancer Fund and over $250,000 for other women’s nonprofits.
