• • • • • • •

Ways to Donate

Since October 2011:

Donate On Line
through Network for Good

(Credit card or Paypal may be required, read more on the donate on line page )

NOTE 1: The donation site, Network for Good, does not allow donations for when you receive something of value in return for your donation. So please use a check or money order and the good ol' US Postal Service when ordering programs, and ask us for more information about the value of the DVDs/tapes and your accountant about what is tax deductible.

NOTE 2: Beginning July 1, 2022, donations go through Peace and Justice Works; use the "Designation" field to indicate the money is for Flying Focus Video.

Ordering DVDs/USB Flash Drives/Videotapes from the
Flying Focus Video Collective

The suggested donation for most of the videos is listed on each item in the printed catalog and each category page of the online catalog. In 2021, we added the ability to order shows on USB Flash Drive for an additional $3 donation to the suggested donations for DVDs (or VHS tapes). Those donations since 2012 have been: $8 for 1/2 hour shows, $11 items for 1 hour shows and $14 for items over 1 hour.

Starting in February, 2005, we began offering our programs on DVD ; since 2007 the suggested donation has been the same for DVD or VHS .

We also offer "streaming rights" for any show (1 or 2 part)-- we ask $35 for individuals/groups and $50 for larger institutions. We can host the online version of our show on our site, or you can host on yours. The idea is to make the shows available so anyone can watch them for free online!

(Note: These donation rates were changed from $75/$125 to $35/$50 in 2024.)

The Flying Focus Video Bus (VB) is 1/2-hour long, suggested donation $8 ,
with a two-part episode (1 hour) at a suggested donation of $11 .

Similarly, any one-hour program is available for a $11 donation, and longer programs are $14 .

About half of the SE (Speakers and Events) programs are 60 min/$11 and the others are 90-120 minutes for $14 .

Many of the ZMI (Z Media Institute) shows are 90 minutes for $14 .

We generally will offer the videos for a lower suggested donation if you supply us with tape/DVD stock.

Orders can take up to 4-6 weeks to fill. Orders of over 10 videos may take longer. Please prioritize any such order if you can.

Note that there is a hard copy of our updated catalog available if you send us your snail mail address.

Remember Flying Focus is an all-volunteer group. Your donations help us to continue our work
and to document events and groups which may be important to you. Thank you.

Please include $4.00 for postage & handling for the first two videos, and $1 per video after that.
Allow up to 6 weeks for delivery.
Titles are not in stock and each video has to be duplicated by hand, VHS in real time and DVDs in 1/2 time.
We ask for your pre-paid donation before copying the videos.
