THE DOUG PENSINGER PHOTOGRAPHY FUND (DPPF) SUPPORTS EMERGING SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHERS BY CREATING A COMMUNITY THAT DEVELOPS THEIR SKILL AND VISION. THROUGH AN ANNUAL OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS, PHOTOGRAPHERS ARE CHOSEN FOR GRANTS AND MENTORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES. IN 2021 THE DPPF SUPPORTED EIGHT YOUNG SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHERS WITH GRANTS FOR CAREER DEVELOPMENT. THERE WAS A FREE OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS, AND THE RECIPIENTS REPRESENTED THE TOP 3% OF THE COMPETITIVE APPLICATION FIELD. THE DPPF PROMOTED THE ACCEPTANCE OF ENTRIES FOR ITS SECOND ANNUAL GRANTS PROGRAM WITH EMAIL RECRUITMENT AND WEB/SOCIAL MEDIA PROMOTION. INDUSTRY LEADERS REPRESENTING MAJOR SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHY WIRE SERVICES AND PUBLICATIONS PROVIDED THE BASIS OF THE NETWORK FOR SPREADING THE WORD.

THE 2020-2021 MENTORSHIPS ENDED IN SEPTEMBER 2021, AND THE 2021-2022 MENTORSHIPS BEGAN IN OCTOBER. MENTORS AND MENTEES COLLABORATE TO FORM A PERSONALIZED PLAN FOR THE MENTEES.

COMMUNITY IS A CORE VALUE OF THE DPPF.
