But, we need your help to get this dream to the big screen. Ashli and Jonathan have launched a new blog and have begun the incredibly fun process of fundraising. I really encourage you to check out their blog and learn more about the film, filmmakers, and how you can become involved. Please share this link to as many people as possible so that we can start spreading the word about "Little by Little".

The documentary's title, Little by Little, comes from a Tanzanian proverb. "Little by little, a little becomes a lot." It pretty much sums up what JBFC has done for Tanzanian orphans. And if you give a little and you ask a friend to give a little... a little will become a lot. And we can see "Little by Little" become a reality.
A little about Ashli Sims, JBFC Board Member and New on 6 Reporter:
As a veteran television journalist, Ashli Sims has spent the last eight years telling stories that matter at KOTV in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She graduated from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism, was a contributing producer for the Emmy-award winning education series “Raising the Grade,” and has been honored three times with the Marshall Gregory Award for year-long education reporting by the Oklahoma Education Association. Sims has done several stories on Chris Gates and JBFC from his hometown of Tulsa and she’s eager to tell the rest of the story from his home in Tanzania.
