about
Giving Back
Uplifting Our Community from the Ground Up
While our films broadcast globally, our heart is deeply rooted in New Brunswick. We are passionate about investing in the social fabric of Saint John and the wider Atlantic region through consistent, active community givebacks:
Certified B Corporation
At Hemmings House, B Corp Certification isn't a corporate badge; it's the lens through which we view every production. From treating our crews with deep respect to running sustainable film sets and choosing partners who share our 'Love Economy' values, we balance purpose with profit to create media that matters.
Achieving this certification means our entire workflow—from pre-production planning to the final cut—has been rigorously evaluated by B Lab. We aren't just making films; we are part of a global movement of creatives and leaders legally committed to using our business as a force for good.
Ethical Production
Meeting high standards of care for our production crews, our local community, and the environments we film in.
Mission-Driven Media
Our commitment to positive social impact is legally woven into the DNA of our production house.
Behind the Scenes
We believe in open books. Our B Impact Score is publicly available, showing exactly how we measure up.
1% for the Planet
Every documentary we shoot and every commercial we produce relies on the natural world. That's why Hemmings House is a proud member of 1% for the Planet, joining a global community dedicated to protecting the earth that hosts our stories.
We believe in accelerating smart environmental action without the fluff. By pledging 1% of our total annual sales—meaning every project we take on contributes—we directly fund passionate, grassroots organizations working on the frontlines of environmental restoration and conservation.
Pledged from Every Frame
1% of all gross sales—from big branded series to local documentaries—goes directly to the planet.
Certified Impact
Every dollar we donate is audited and verified, ensuring our environmental contributions are as authentic as our films.
Funding the Frontlines
We direct our funds strictly to carefully vetted, high-impact environmental partners doing the real work.
Anti-Poverty Partnerships with United Way
We believe a thriving creative economy requires a strong, supported community. Hemmings House proudly collaborates with the United Way of Central N.B. and Greater Saint John, donating creative services, video assets, and corporate funding to amplify anti-poverty initiatives, food security programs, and vital community housing projects.
Championing the Arts & Culture Ecosystem:
A vibrant society thrives on artistic expression. We consistently sponsor local film festivals, support independent musicians, and provide heavily subsidized pro-bono video production services to non-profits and arts organizations that are working to keep our local culture alive and accessible.
The "Love Economy" in Action:
Whether we are dropping off warm winter gear to local shelters, serving on community boards, or using our studio space to host community dialogues, our team is showing up. We don't just film the community; we live in it, build it, and protect it.
