The One Race Global Film Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by actor, producer, director and writer Vin Diesel, with the mission of fostering the growth of diverse national and international voices in under-served communities within the global entertainment industry.  

Through education and training in film, video, and new media production One Race students gain hands-on experience as writers, producers, directors, actors, cinematographers, physical production technicians and editors of short film and video projects during an intensive summer training program and year-round weekend workshops conducted in host countries. 

Through the One Race Global Film Foundation program, young filmmakers learn every facet of the filmmaking process – from a story’s inception to completion.  In partnership with New York University and the government of the Dominican Republic, the Foundation has already served over 500 aspiring filmmakers and graduated more than 80 students who have produced over 25 short films during their tenure.

We are extremely proud of the quality of the works produced by our students and encourage our supporters to get in touch with us via e-mail below.  You can also make a donation  to us by visiting our donations page.
