Amazing support on the Indiegogo campaign. We are right on schedule to start film production on May 19th in Oregon. I've had quite a few people who are looking for another way to donate. If you wish to donate, here is the link. Also, if you want to purchase a shirt they are available here - http://skreened.com/theonejoe/for-joshua?. Thank you, everyone!

The Mission "For Joshua" is being created by three Marine Corps veterans of Operation Enduring Freedom who all have a film/photography background. Since Operation Enduring Freedom began on October 7th, 2001 there have been 3,417 coalition fatalities. This is the story of one Marine who was killed...

Very excited to announce updates made to the options for contributors!

A $1 donation gets you thanks, listed as a contributor on the website and in the credits and you'll also get early access for the option to purchase the film.

$5 donation gets all that, plus a postcard from the production team while they are on the road! Only 10 days left, so please share! :)

This film follows the family of Sgt Cesar B. Ruiz, Marine Corps veterans after their deployment and how they transitioned back to life as a civilian.

Hello, everyone! We've had quite a few new fans this past week so here are a few links of importance, and some news as well. First off, there are now 32 Marines attached to this project. The VFW dinner benefit in Ohio was very successful and we are on track to start production on the 19th of May.

The goal set for shirts on TeeSpring has been reduced to 25, so we only need 10 more pre-orders to put the shirts into production! That campaign ends in just one week and 3 days.

If a plain white tee-shirt isn't your thing, you can also check out the designs we have on Skreened. They offer everything from youth sizes, hoodies, shirts and tote bags.

The Indiegogo pitch is doing very well, thanks so much to everyone who has donated! There are currently 32 days left and we have raised $1,775! Below you will find every link related to "For Joshua". Every cent raised goes directly towards making this film happen, giving Joshua Cesar Ruiz a way to learn about his father from those who served with him and to keep the legacy of Sgt Cesar B. Ruiz alive. Please share and pass along this info!

Semper Fidelis.

Everyone has been awesome with their support and there are lots of ways to help out with this project. We're close to 200 likes, so share this post with your friends to help spread the word! If you haven't pre-ordered your shirt from teespring, there 16 days left with 14 of 40 sold. There are 38 days left on the indiegogo pitch. One Marine took it upon himself to get a dinner benefit scheduled with his local VFW! If you have ideas for some local "boots on the ground" fundraising, please send us a message. Semper Fi!

I was deployed in Afghanistan and while driving past a farm our convoy stopped. This little boy just sat and stared at us the entire time. War is all he knows. Imagine if - there was world peace.
