Help Celebrate An Unsung CAC Hero
October 31st 2016. If a picture is worth a thousand words then how many words is a video worth? For CAC the value of a video is immeasurable. It is a universal problem for non-profit organizations all over the world- how do you tell the story of your work simply. Without question the best way, without actually taking people directly to our programs, is through video. That is why the importance of CAC resident videographer Kevin O’Donovan can’t be underestimated. Kevin (or OD as he is commonly referred) brings CAC to life through his inspirational vision and ability. Every year OD leaves his regular life for 2 weeks and traipses to whichever far-flung location CAC request his presence. In the past this has meant charter planes in Kenya, 10 hour bus journeys to rural Uganda, bumpy roads in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and filming in some of the most disadvantaged areas of India and Cambodia. The destination of the CAC films in 2016 has still to be revealed…
Now we are delighted to say that OD has been recognized for his incredible work by the Charity Film Awards who have nominated his film about our ASK for Choice initiative. BUT, we need your help to ensure he is rewarded further! We NEED you to go online and vote for this film to win the award! Click here to vote. With your help we can fully celebrate an unsung hero of CAC’s success.

The Jamaican (Video) Farewell
January 21st 2015. Our last program of 2014 was working with Ballaz International, the Real Madrid School for Social Integration, and the Spanish Jamaica Foundation both in Kingston and Montego Bay. Lyrics to the song “Jamaican Farewell” rung in our heads such as “sounds of laughter everywhere” and “the sun shines daily on the mountaintop”. And among our great two weeks of training were the people of Digicel SportsMax who filmed the event and put together this great video of the difference being made in Jamaica because of this partnership.
Thanks very much to Digicel SportsMax for showing this on local TV and putting together a great film about Coaches Across Continents and our incredible local partners in Jamaica.
