“Explore Series” shows the behind-the-scenes work of philanthropy. Viewers meet the people affected by positive change catalyzed by philanthropy, and just as importantly, the leaders creating it. “Explore” strives to personalize the business of philanthropy while rediscovering the human element. The team’s missions have led them to places where suffering is met with compassion and where the human spirit is kept alive by people who have dedicated their lives to humanity, not material gain.

Explore is a multimedia organization that champions the selfless acts of others, documenting leaders around the world who have devoted their lives to extraordinary causes. Both educational and inspirational, explore films cover topics from animal rights, health and human services, and poverty to the environment, education, and spirituality. Explore, which can be found at www.explore.org, is also an online community where people share, dialogue, and experience films and photography to bring cultural context to philanthropy. Organizations featured in explore films have received over $15 million in funding from explore in the form of Annenberg Foundation grants.
