What have hundreds of Califonians done that folk in Vermont, North Dakota & Montana failed to do?

They’ve failed to vote!

Focusonability is 1 State up on last year (47 / 46) and Americans are still the biggest voters outside of Australia and we want the set! This is a call out to ‘the cousins’ – tell your friends to take a look at the 80 films on offer: www.focusonability.com.au and get voting – we want everybody to share in these heartwarming stories

We are huge in Slovenia (pushing the Poms!) and big in the Phillipines. Focus films have been watched across Asia, South America, every European country, Scandanavia – all around the world tens of thousands of people are watching inspirational short films that, like the title says, focus on Ability.

It’s a privilige to be able to share these.

Voting stops at midnight Sunday (11th August AEST).

Please vote now, your support and interest is truly valued.

(Following Thursday nights award program a series of programs highlighting the winners and other ‘worthies will be shown on Foxtel)
