Give Your Gear a New Story

Your unused camera equipment can spark creativity, empower storytellers, and make dreams come alive. Be part of the journey to inspire the next generation of filmmakers.

How to Donate Your Equipment

It all starts with a simple act of generosity. Maybe you’ve upgraded your gear and aren’t sure what to do with the old set. Maybe you want to support emerging filmmakers and amplify their voices. Or maybe you’re passionate about sustainability and giving your equipment a second life. Whatever your reason, donating your gear can change someone’s story—and the world.

Here’s how you can make an impact:

  1. Check Your Gear
    Dust off those old cameras, lenses, tripods, or lighting kits you’re no longer using. Whether it’s a professional DSLR, a vintage camcorder, even old laptops for editing….every piece of equipment has potential.

  2. Drop It Off or Ship It
    Choose what’s easiest for you—bring your equipment to one of our donation centers or use our prepaid shipping option to send it in. We’ll take care of the rest.

  3. Track Your Impact
    Your donation isn’t just gear—it’s a chance for someone to create, dream, and share their vision. We’ll keep you updated with stories and projects made possible by your generosity.

  4. Get Recognized (or Stay Anonymous)
    We’ll acknowledge your contribution with a thank-you certificate and a spotlight on our platform—unless you prefer to stay behind the scenes.

"Giving back is about more than sharing resources—it’s about creating opportunities and empowering voices that deserve to be heard. Your unused equipment can spark creativity, inspire storytelling, and help someone turn a dream into reality. At Film Connect, we believe stories can change the world, and with your help, we can make that change possible."
