The room

Doors at 4:00, film at 5:30, and your guests are in the building for all of it: a reception with a performer working the room, a live auction called from the floor, then the film, seated together, private, for the whole night.

By our estimate, the 2024 room skewed affluent and connected: guests around 44, household incomes near $175,000, and a mix of Los Angeles media executives, working professionals, and business owners. A room with real disposable income and reach, and four hours of its attention.

"Seeing XÜM on the big screen ahead of Dune: Part Two was thrilling. Citizen Medic made it feel like more than an advertisement, and XÜM became part of the occasion itself."

Avens O'Brien, Co-Founder and Vice President of Operations, Advanced Mycology

Forty-five seconds on the cinema screen

Each Presenting Sponsor's spot plays on the big screen during the seated pre-film program, to 150 people. Nobody scrolls past it, and nobody skips it. You supply the video, up to forty-five seconds, and we handle the rest.

What you're funding

Kai Chang teaching a Citizen Medic workshop to a seated group of motorcyclists, CPR mannequins on the table in front of him
A Citizen Medic workshop. Kai leads the instruction; associate instructors run the hands-on practice.

Citizen Medic Foundation teaches first aid, CPR, and disaster preparedness to people outside medicine, the ones most likely to be first at the scene.

Each workshop trains 30 to 50 people. Students pay $20 to $30, and we waive it for anyone who asks. The Foundation covers the rest, about $1,000 a workshop: extra instructors so the groups stay small enough that everyone practices, mannequin rental, food, and the bandages and slings that get used up. A Supporting Sponsorship covers two of them. A Presenting Sponsorship covers five.

How sponsorships are sold

Sponsorships are sold through a conversation and an invoice, not a checkout. Tell us which tier fits and we'll send terms.

There are two Presenting sponsorships and four Supporting. Both close Friday, October 30th, or when they are taken, whichever comes first.
