We are pleased to announce our new impact short documentary, Magical Bridge: Kind By Design, by Splicer Films and Executive Producer The Schmidt Family Foundation. The film follows the stories of advocates, parents, and children of all ages and abilities who, together, are fostering more inclusive communities. What began as a mom's mission to create a playground where both her daugthers can play has grown into a worldwide movement to design public spaces for everybody.
