Thanks to generous donations from around the world, J.T. Arbogast can breathe a sigh of relief. His film, Angelﾒs Perch, has received $32,005 in donations from 241 ﾓbackers.ﾔ

ﾓIt has been truly humbling to see all of these people, many of whom we donﾒt even know, reach out to support this film,ﾔ Arbogast said. ﾓItﾒs all that we had hoped for and more.ﾔ

Up next for Arbogast and his crew is getting the remainder of the budget, finding housing in or near Cass for the cast and crew, connecting with West Virginia based production companies to assist with the film and setting up the casting process.

The film, set in Cass and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was inspired by Arbogastﾒs relationship with his ﾓnana,ﾔ Dess Kane, and her struggle with Alzheimerﾒs.
