DOCUMENTARIES DOCUMENTING THE HUMAN SPIRIT! An important part of the Polaris family of businesses headed up by Greg Strom, Shane Krider and Rachel Oliver is creating a series of awareness raising documentaries. Each quarter Polaris Global Media releases a new documentary and continues to assist people who tend to be ignored and forgotten by society. These documentaries explore different aspects of the human spirit. As a library of work, these projects gain awareness for and create a situation whereby average people who want to make a difference can contribute and know that they are making a positive change in the world. For each of our Documentaries a portion of the proceeds is being donated to a charity relevant to that specific film. These charities include: |

THE GREAT SHAVE!
Raising Money for Cancer Research
Polaris Global
Losing your hair is a normal part of cancer treatment. At Polaris Global, we made it a part of finding a cure as well!!
At our recent Influence Live event in Macau, China the leadership team organized an exciting fundraiser for cancer research. We proudly raised over $75,000.
Several leadership members have volunteered to have their heads shaved on stage, to demonstrate their commitment to this cause, and in doing so inspired many people in the audience and around the world to take action and donate money to help find a cure!
To support this worthy effort, PGM Founder Shane Krider donated his favorite Ducati motorcycle to assist the team in hitting their goal!
