Over the last decade, StoryCenter and WeVideo have collaborated to bring countless professionals, students and the public into the world of digital video editing. For StoryCenter, the focus has been on how story, and storytelling, could transform lives, and assist people with the issues they face, in their lives, their community, and in society as a whole. For WeVideo it has been about broad access and broad literacy for collaborative digital media creativity for educators and others interested in expressing their stories in video.

In these urgent times, we want to create new ways for people to collaborate and share stories, from wherever they are, across states, countries, and across the world. Toward that end we want to make you aware of efforts by StoryCenter, supported by WeVideo, to create new online programs and activities with the public, for schools, civic and service organizations, small businesses, and the general public.
We have expanded our online offerings, while also developing new projects with various sectors as part of our many programs and initiatives. Working with WeVideo, we want specifically to help people to share their stories and create videos that inspire us all to face challenges ahead, and show us the stories of how people are forging ahead with their lives.
WeVideo has generously offered to extend free licenses to these new StoryCenter's new initiatives in this period, and share with the WeVideo user community about StoryCenter's specific efforts in response to the Covid 19 pandemic to provide scholarships and underwritten projects for all our partners and friends to receive training in WeVideo.
"We are now all listeners," says StoryCenter founder and director Joe Lambert, "we are listening to each other, in our families, at our schools, at our jobs, our social media, through all these remote exchanges, in discussing the many ways COVID 19 is changing our lives. We all have stories that assist us with finding strength and hope, and with WeVideo's support we can give a powerful tool for capturing those stories as digital stories to help all our families and communities."
All events, groups, organizations, and centers are open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
