Right now, The First Save is in crowdfunding mode — and we’re close to being greenlit on Seed&Spark. But what does that mean?

Being greenlit means we’ve hit 80% of our fundraising goal, which unlocks all the tools and perks Seed&Spark offers to help us finish the job. More importantly, it sends a clear signal to our investors and grant partners: this story has momentum, and it matters to people.
For us, greenlight isn’t just a badge — it’s a turning point.
It means we can:
Lock in production dates
Secure our key cast and crew
Start prepping to shoot in Cleveland
Honor our investors' matching commitments
It also means we’re one giant step closer to telling a story the world needs to hear — about courage, legacy, and how ordinary people saved lives during a time of crisis. The sooner we hit that milestone, the sooner we make this film.
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to support, this is it.
