The Miller / Packan Film Fund
We learn from each other.
The Rogovy Foundation has suspended grant-making via the Miller/Packan Film Fund. While proudly supporting many deserving documentary projects, the Foundation has shifted its mission and focus to a more pressing need: defending the Fourth Estate.
Nine years ago, the Miller / Packan film fund was initiated to support projects that could produce meaningful impact. Over the course of 18 biannual open calls, we received over 5,300 applications, and supported nearly 85 films. Many wonderful documentaries have been completed, and can be watched via our Watch Now viewing page.
The Foundation is grateful to all the filmmakers who sought its assistance, and will continue to publicize each of the title as they it becomes available.

About Miller / Packan
Who are Sally Miller & Mae Packan? It’s nearly certain you’ve never heard of these outstanding educators. Locally, they left a mark on several generations of high school students. Yet there are no major awards given to them, no buildings named after them, not a statue nor even a plaque. Like many exceptional educators, their impact goes largely unrecognized.
It’s in their honor, and in honor of all the other exceptional yet unheralded educators, that we dedicate this Fund. The Miller / Packan Film Fund supports documentaries that perpetuate the Idealism and Critical Thinking they brought to their students.
