Land acknowledgement
WorkCabin Films acknowledges that we are living, working, and stewarding on the traditional treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nations. In particular, we would like to acknowledge the Neutral, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples.

Grant writing and funding procurement for videos and films can be a challenge for small and medium conservation organizations. That’s why WorkCabin Films now offers an inhouse service to help nonprofits get funding to make professional conservation storytelling possible in collaboration with WorkCabin Films.

Cynthia is a conservation powerhouse of grant writing and funding securement. Her ability to identify funding opportunities and craft compelling grant proposals ensures conservation nonprofits can secure the resources you need to elevate your storytelling through impactful films and videos.

Cynthia’s experience as a co-producer spans a variety of successful WorkCabin Films projects, including a miniseries funded by Nature Canada and a full-length documentary on the Long Point Walsingham Forest Priority Place, funded by Environment and Climate Change Canada. Her producer skills, combined with a collaborative spirit and impeccable organizational abilities, have delivered sold-out screenings and meaningful community outreach projects, solidifying her reputation as a trusted partner in conservation storytelling in Canada.

Drawing on her background at the Long Point Biosphere Region, Cynthia brings a unique perspective to every project. Her work there included land-based learning programs for students, community education initiatives, and coordinating the Long Point Research and Conservation Conference, where she increased attendance by 50% and showcased groundbreaking university research. These accomplishments highlight her talent for fostering connections between people and nature while inspiring sustainable living practices.

Cynthia’s passion for nature stems from a lifetime of exploring the outdoors, fueling her belief that “Restore it, and they will return.” This philosophy drives her dedication to supporting conservation nonprofits in telling their stories and realizing their missions. Her expertise in securing funding allows her to champion meaningful projects that promote harmony between people and the natural world.
