Dorothy Supri is a talented event coordinator with more than 15 years of planning and executing various events and gatherings from large corporate meetings and parties, to fundraisers, to intimate weddings. Dorothy is also an artist, who is currently working as a freelance graphic and website designer.
Believing that it is important to give back to a world that has been so kind to her, Dorothy has always found ways to help others. She spent several years as the Hollywood branch president for the international non-profit Foresters organization. During her tenure with the Foresters, Dorothy was chairman of a number of charitable events that raised money for the 1-800-4-A-Child Prevention of Child Abuse Hotline, and for Los Angeles Children’s Hospital through the Children’s Miracle Network. Dorothy also oversaw the Foresters children’s fingerprinting program, which equipped parents, free of charge, with a package of information to be used in the all important first few hours should, sadly, a child go missing. As a result of the outstanding work that she performed for the community, and the funds and awareness she helped to raise for these worthwhile charities, Dorothy was presented with the IOF Foresters Hero Award; an honor reserved for very few in the 1.2 million member international charitable organization.
Dorothy is currently the Director of Development for the International Student Film Festival Hollywood (ISFFH). She has become tremendously passionate about the goals of the ISFFH, and believes that bringing together these upcoming filmmakers from around the world to share not only their films, but the stories of who they are, and the cultures in which they were raised, is a chance to help the future. Film has become one of the most powerful mediums for communication in existence today, and Dorothy believes that these future filmmakers can make a difference for the good, if given the chance. The ISFFH helps to give them that chance. |
