For CUT! 2009, we chose Down Syndrome Association Los Angeles (DSALA) as the official beneficiary for funds raised through donations, special raffles and auctions at the 2009 event. The DSALA was chosen due to their outstanding efforts to support, educate and improve the lives of individuals and families dealing with Down Syndrome. WHY THESE CHILDREN? These children are truly God's own angels here on earth and CUT! Film Festival is very proud to be a part of helping their lives through the DSALA.
