A Unique For-Profit Entity Filling a Gap that Non-Profits Can’t Fill

We are a for-profit company organized as a Limited Liability Company (falling under the Mississippi registered Note Climber LLC). There are only a handful of non-profit organizations devoted to the preservation of amateur and home movies. And all of them have the same limitations that come with being organized as non-profits–the inability to utilize for-profit incentives to acquire the most rare and endangered footage.

In our efforts interacting with collectors, dealers, estate sales companies, and individual tape owners; we’ve encountered many instances where the holders of these tapes were only willing to transfer the items in exchange for revenue sharing or other prices non-profits operating in this space are not able to pay.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238127223{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #cee2e0 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding” css=”.vc_custom_1695553259759{padding-top: 50px !important;}”]

Our Business Model

In order to fund our efforts at home movie acquisition, digitization, and preservation; we license footage to filmmakers and advertising companies looking for vintage video content for their projects. This is a business model that will take time to fully flourish. In the meantime, the tapes we’ve acquired are backed up waiting for digitization and our acquisition process has slowed.

What hasn’t slowed, however, is the pace of destruction of irreplaceable home and amateur movies. Unlike movies and television shows, home videos were recorded by real people living real life as it unfolded. But sadly, most of these precious glimpses into how things really were are disappearing at accelerating rates.

By signing up for one of our benevolent licensee plans, you can help us fund the digitization of tapes we already own, the saving of hundreds more, and even help a charity of your choosing–all this while also potentially receiving a charitable tax deduction as well.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238131977{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #402013 !important;}” el_class=”dg-container”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding .dg-white” css=”.vc_custom_1695553356082{padding-top: 20px !important;}”]

An Irreplaceable Loss: Jeremy’s Story

I didn’t start truly valuing my family’s home videos until after losing my grandfather to cancer in 2004. My grandmother had an old VHS tape of him but it hadn’t been touched in years. I only found out about it after my grandmother mentioned how she threw it away because it was no good anymore. In her mind, not having a VCR to watch it made it useless.

After mentioning this incident to others, a number of my friends mentioned how something similar happened with their family members and their home movies. I then realized that what my grandmother did was something that thousands of others were doing every day. People were throwing away irreplaceable footage because they didn’t have the tools or incentives to make those plastic VHS tapes and metallic reels “useful” again.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238127223{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #cee2e0 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding” css=”.vc_custom_1695463462182{padding-top: 30px !important;}”]

What We Are Offering

Through this campaign, we are offering three different packages of video production brokering and vintage video licensing. You can order a package for yourself or go directly to a federally registered charitable organization and make a restricted cash donation to them to be used to purchase one of the packages below from us.

If you directly purchase from us, you will not receive a tax deduction since we are a for profit company. If you do make a restricted cash donation to a charitable organization, then you should be eligible to have at least a portion of it considered deductible from your taxes for charitable giving from our understanding.

It’s important to note that we are not giving financial or legal advice and are only providing our understanding regarding restricted donations generally. We encourage you to talk with your legal and financial advisors before making a restricted cash donation to a charitable organization.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238131977{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #402013 !important;}” el_class=”dg-container”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding .dg-white”]

Results You Can See and Track

When you purchase one of our packages, you can feel confident in the impact your money will have. We will provide you with bi-weekly updates identifying the videos that were digitized or saved with money used from your purchase. You, along with the rest of the world, will be able to watch the videos on our YouTube channel. It will be fun to see what unique pieces of history pops up in your inbox every few weeks thanks to your patronage.

And once you make the purchase, you or the charitable organization you made the restricted cash donation to for our services, will be able to search through our videos to find the perfect footage to use for all sorts of video projects through the licenses that comes with the purchase.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238136316{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #d1c8bf !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding” css=”.vc_custom_1695463542817{padding-top: 10px !important;}”]

The Ticking Clock

Somewhere, as you read this, there is a grandmother or other relative throwing away priceless footage that means something special to someone. Somewhere, a junk removal company is hauling away a film reel from a widow’s home with breathtaking footage that would have given a video project that special touch that would have brought joy to viewers.

The clock is ticking and it’s painful to think about what is being lost every second.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1695238131977{padding-top: 20px !important;background-color: #402013 !important;}” el_class=”dg-container”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”.mobile-padding .dg-white”]

How to Get Started

If you are ready to take action, review and choose one of the packages below. You can choose to pay directly through the links below each option (the payment gateway is on our Autumn Rewind website) and receive the packages for your use. As mentioned, this would not allow for a charitable deduction.

You can also choose to make a restricted cash donation (restricted to purchase our services) to an organization or multiple organizations that are eligible to receive tax-deductible charitable contributions. Please work with your legal and financial advisors to initiate this process with an eligible organization of your choosing. A searchable database of these organizations can be found on the Internal Revenue Service’s website: https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/tax-exempt-organization-search
