About

Storm Surge is a social impact media project featuring a three-part documentary film series, a social media engagement campaign, a public speaking tour, and educational curricula designed to inform, inspire, and motivate high school aged youth in all 50-states to take immediate action to help their respective communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural and technological disasters.

Storm Surge peers into the everyday lives of shrimp fishermen and school teachers, musicians, mayors and single mothers, emergency management officials and community activists as they overcome tragedy, while moving forward with life and building toward a just, sustainable, and fair future.

Documentary films are increasingly being recognized as a critical channel for communicating social issues and inspiring social change.
