Support Film Otsego

Film Otsego is here to help!


Business Partners and Executive Producers

We would love to leverage your donations to create matches during the campaign. If you would like to join our VIP class, please contact Board President Greg Klein at greg@filmotsego.com to arrange to sponsor a Match-day Monday or Weekends Wild program. 


  • Connect with local businesses and workers to staff and stock a shoot.
  • Connect with local municipalities, police, and fire departments to ensure safety and proper permitting and permissions for shoots.
  • Find locations for shoots and connect producers with local businesses and property owners to facilitate site rentals.


Film Otsego was founded in 2020 with a generous grant from the C.J. Heilig Foundation. We are a nonprofit 501c6 (so donations, unfortunately, are not tax deductible). We are powered by a diverse board of directors, including local industry professionals and community leaders. Our board members have been writing checks and donating work hours all year to launch us, but we need help from the larger community for full funding. 


The impact of donating

We have great partnership programs for businesses and individuals, with incredible perks. However, in addition to getting some perks, our donors should know that building an entertainment industry in Otsego County would mean they are helping to:

  • Bring millions of dollars of business to local industries, including lodging, restaurants and catering, dry cleaning, general goods, thrift sales, office space and other location rentals.
  • Creating economic diversity in the regionthat has been hurt during the pandemic because of an overreliance on tourism and colleges.
  • Creating an industry that would attract young people to the region and would give our high school and college graduates a reason to stay in the area.


Fully funded Film Otsego

The response since we officially launched this fall has been overwhelmingly positive and we are thankful for your support. We ask that you become our partners in making a better Otsego County by building a new industry here. Please give what you can to help our nonprofit and help our region.
