The COOL Cooperative is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing at-promise youth with academic support, mentorship, and hands-on training in the film industry to provide them with the knowledge and resources to lead successful lives. We believe that all children have tremendous potential – that regardless of their backgrounds or environment every child deserves the opportunity to discover their talents, find their passion, and have success. By providing academic support, community service learning, and the magic of hands-on film education, we strive to develop productive, self-reliant individuals. We are a team of passionate business leaders, educators, politicians, film professionals, parents, students, visionaries, and volunteers committed to making an impact on the lives of New Orleans youth. With your support we can touch even more young lives. Please join our community and help us to make a difference.
