(1+1=U, Inc.), which serves to impact the lives of teens, ages 13-19, by way of high school completion and post-secondary educational attainment. Through application and implementation of the, “whole child” curricula, 1+1=U, Inc. encourages participants to develop academic scholarship, community engagement in world leadership, self-discipline, integrity and responsibility. The organization aims to impact the lives of its student athletes through preparation and admission to colleges, universities, technical/vocational schools, preparatory military academies, and / or boarding schools. Our event mission is to fundraise for underserved youth who, through the Young Champions Program, have been given a second chance at realizing higher education. Attendees will walk away from our event knowing their financial contribution will help to place great student athletes into post-secondary schools where they are able to excel in sports, education, and life.”

  • March 2022/ USA/ MG Cinematography & Sound for interview for Zaytuna College pre-Ramadan programme. (https://zaytuna.edu/)

“Gray Henry provides an engaging discussion on the spiritual dimensions of zakat and charitable giving. Drawing from her more recent notable publications of Imam al-Ghazali's The Revival of the Religious Sciences, Henry takes us on a beautiful story-telling journey that explains the necessary state of the heart and mind when giving for the sake of God.”

  • April 2021 / USA/ MG Cinematography & Sound for Haley Kaelin segment

    Poetry Unites Kentucky | Full Feature WATCH HERE

    POETRY UNITES AMERICA is an essay writing contest and documentary film project which reveals how much Americans have in common when they open up through their love of poetry. The four subjects of each episode are selected through a statewide contest for the best essay on their favorite poem. The 30-minutes film features their life story with the poem in the background. The contest under patronage of a state Poet Laureate invites the public to submit essays in which contestants convey the personal significance of their favorite poems. The project culminates in in-depth filmed interviews with the finalists, edited into an unscripted documentary film. The result is a unique, heart-warming, and uplifting picture of the USA, an America United, whose existence we tend to doubt lately.
