Springs Media Collective · Support

Help us tell stories
worth telling.

Independent faith-forward film depends on people who believe in it. Here’s what we’re raising for right now — and four ways you can be part of it.

Now raising · Feature film

The Secret Lantern

A Nova Carter Mystery

An award-winning screenplay written by Alexandra Boylan and Lex Benedict

A Nancy Drew-style mystery series for teen girls — faith, adventure, and a heroine who wants to change the world. Created by award-winning filmmakers with a heart to help young women find their identity in Christ, each film comes with Bible study resources built for real conversations with teens.

Alexandra and Lex are producing independent of studios that would control the narrative for this audience — which means the funding has to come from people who share the vision. Springs Media Collective has come alongside them to help raise it.

Funding goal

$350,000

Ways to help

Four ways to support the film

One · Give

Make a donation

Gifts to The Secret Lantern are received through PC Downtown Renaissance, a 501(c)(3) organization, and are tax-deductible. Your receipt will come from PC Downtown Renaissance, not Springs Media Collective.

Two · Gather

Host a watch party

The simplest version is the best one: friends, good snacks, and a movie night. We provide everything — links to the Boylan sisters’ films, a video from Alexandra and Lex about the project, printable Bible study materials, and remote tech help to get your setup running. You bring the people.

No fundraising experience needed. We’ll walk you through it.

Three · Invest

Become an investor

Equity opportunities are available for those interested in supporting independent faith-forward film. Investment is separate from donation — it is not tax-deductible, and terms are discussed directly with the filmmakers.

Four · Pray

Pray for this work

Above anything else, this is a media missions project. Pray for young girls to know their identity and self-worth through this film — and for the message of the gospel to stay front and center in everything we make.
