Charitable Mission Statement
We believe in paying it forward and over the last 20 years, RTA has raised over $855,000 to various charitable organizations in the SF Bay Area and beyond.
Our Collaboration with Optimist Films
Red Tower works with Optimist films to help raise awareness of their cause and some of the issues they portray in their films. We were first introduced to Optimist through their film, Living On One Dollar. It left an impression on our family including the kids who wanted to take part in the bigger picture. Through their film making, Optimist brings issues onscreen and is able to reach children of all ages as well as adults. We believe this multi-generational outreach is powerful and essential. They are able to teach through cinema in ways that textbooks cannot.
