We don’t often ask. But today, we need to. Our global e-mentoring programme is the heart of @accessvfx connecting nearly 4,000 members worldwide, free of charge, with working professionals across VFX, animation and games. And right now, we are raising £10,000 to protect it. Without this programme, ACCESS:VFX cannot operate in the way it has for the past decade. Mentoring is not a side initiative. It is the engine that drives access, inclusion and opportunity across our global community. ➡️ For students without connections. ➡️ For career changers taking risks. ➡️ For freelancers navigating instability. ➡️ For parents returning to work. ➡️ For first-generation creatives. This programme creates belonging before someone lands their first job. And we have always kept it free. But free doesn’t mean costless. If you believe the industry should be open to everyone - not just those with networks or financial safety nets - please consider supporting the campaign. Every share matters. Every donation helps. Every signal of support keeps the door open. 🔗 Donate here: #Gofundme LINK IN BIO #VFX #Animation #Mentorship #CreativeCareers
