About the magazine

Impact Partners is a New York-based film funding and production company founded in 2007 by Dan Cogan and Geralyn Dreyfous. It was established to support independent documentary filmmakers addressing pressing social issues, with a particular emphasis on narrative-driven nonfiction that combines artistic rigor with investigative depth. The organization operates as a for-profit entity but functions with a philanthropic ethos, providing grants and equity investments to projects that might otherwise struggle to secure financing. Over the years, Impact Partners has backed numerous acclaimed documentaries, many of which have premiered at major festivals and won prestigious awards, including Academy Awards and Emmy Awards. Its core mission is to champion stories that illuminate untold truths and provoke meaningful dialogue around social justice, human rights, and environmental concerns.

Submitting your work

Reading periodOpen now

Impact Partners accepts submissions on a rolling basis through its website, but filmmakers are advised to research the organization's past projects to ensure alignment with its social-issue focus. The submission process typically requires a detailed proposal, including a synopsis, treatment, director's statement, and sample footage if available. Given the high volume of inquiries, it is recommended to submit only when the project has reached a stage where a clear narrative and visual approach can be demonstrated. Building relationships with industry peers and attending documentary forums can also provide valuable introductions. Patience is key, as response times may vary.
