After The Fire is a heartfelt documentary-style video created for Camp Okizu, a recreational camp supporting children and families affected by cancer. Following a devastating wildfire in Northern California that destroyed large portions of the camp, this video captures both the impact of the disaster and the resilience of the community. Produced pro bono by our nonprofit, Visual Anarchy, After The Fire not only documents the challenges faced but also reassures supporters that restoration work is underway and that Camp Okizu will rise stronger than ever. This cinematic story honors the spirit of the camp, its staff, and the families who call it home.

Close the Opportunity Gap in Palo Alto
Did you know 60% of low-income Palo Alto students are falling behind? See how we're changing that.
Palo Alto is home to one of the highest performing school districts in California. But for two decades, there has been a persistent achievement gap. Over 1,100 low-income students attend our Palo Alto schools, many of whom are from Spanish-speaking households without a college-educated parent. In a high-stakes, fast-paced academic environment where most students’ parents have high incomes and advanced degrees, it's no wonder that our low-income students struggle to keep up with their more privileged peers.
