Tailor Made Media and Fig West Chester present an inside look into the tastes of Downtown West Chester, PA. With more than 65 eateries, Downtown West Chester is an incredible destination for food!
The world refugee crisis is getting worse, and the financial and political support for refugees is dropping. There is much discussion about the crisis, but refugees themselves are not often able to participate in the conversation. In August, Tailor Made Films traveled to the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya, to hear directly from refugees themselves. With a staggering population of over 180,000, Kakuma is the second largest refugee camp in the world.
In 1894, three sisters founded a college preparatory school dedicated to educational excellence for young women. From the beginning, their vision was clear. They would go beyond training students’ minds, developing their character as well.
They thoughtfully chose the phrase, Courage for the Deed; Grace for the Doing, a motto that would inspire students to take risks to think deeply of others, and to make a positive impact in the world around them.
Many things may have changed at The Shipley School throughout the last 125 years, but educational excellence, integrity, community, and caring for others have remained at the heart of what it means to be a Shipley student. Today and every day, we celebrate the power and the potential of a Shipley education to make a difference.
We celebrate the students, the teachers, and the alumni who have put their Shipley ideals to work to do exceptional things for the greater good.
We celebrate the Shipley sisters, who laid the roots of an institution that would cultivate 125 years of changemakers.
Together, we celebrate the next 125 years.

Anna, Shipley’s all-time leading scorer on the basketball court, feared both leaving her comfort zone to try to fit in at a new school and taking the train from Downingtown to Shipley. After being welcomed with open arms, Anna thrived and became a leader on and off the court.
In this video we hear from Ryan, Adam, and Hubert as they take us through their Mountain Bike Clinic hosted by the Semper Fi and Americas Fund sportsmanship program, Team Semper Fi. The Team partners with the National Ability Center to teach Service Members techniques in Mountain Biking on traditional and recumbent bikes.
Mountain biking is hard. There’s just no way around it. The roots, gravel and boulders make climbing steep hills nearly impossible sometimes. You wreck, and wreck, and wreck again – especially when you’re learning. It takes real strength to stand back up, dust yourself off, and get back on your bike. But imagine if you have balance issues, or you are missing a leg, or both legs. How much more challenging would mountain biking be then? And how rewarding it would be to finally sail through the single track bike trails of Park City, Utah focusing only on the trail ahead and wind in your face. Now, that sounds like something worth falling for.

This video was created by Tailor Made Media in West Chester, PA, and in Partnership with the Semper Fi and America’s Fund.

Making new students feel welcome when they arrive is important for any school, and a direct message video is a great way to begin that process. This video uses real Shipley students’ voices to welcome new members of their community.

Sometimes a short and sweet glimpse of what your school has to offer is better than a longer form video, and often doesn’t require a big production. This short commercial spot was edited from a longer testimonial video with the same student.
A product video is an excellent way to entice potential clients to reach out for more information or purchase your product.

C.B. Community Schools is an organization that has set out to mitigate the educational crisis happening in Philadelphia to due young people in the foster care and juvenile justice systems being pushed to the margins of the educational systems because the system is not built to address their needs for healing and consistency.
This is Ashley’s experience before and after the C.B. Community Schools.
Their mission is to engage, educate, and ensure that vulnerable students, who are currently involved in or were formerly involved in the child welfare or juvenile justice system, learn, heal, and grow into caring, confident, competent citizens of the world.
Tyler was the first in his family to enlist into the military. He wanted to become a pilot, so he joined the US Air-force. Tyler’s time in the Air-force was cut short when he was dropped from a helicopter during a training exercise. Now, paralyzed from the waist down, Tyler faces the challenges of living his life from a wheelchair.
Natalie was injured in Iraq and now suffers from seizures, cognitive disorders, balance issues and severe PTSD. Her symptoms were sometimes just too much for her to bear, so she tried to take her own life – six times.
Tyler and Natalie have found a path to recovery at a small lake community near Atlanta, Georgia. They were part of a program supported by the Semper Fi and Americas Fund – Team Semper Fi. The Team partners with Wake for Warriors to teach Service Members techniques in wake surfing.
Wake surfing may sound like a bunch of fun-in the-sun for most of us, but for Natalie and Tyler this sport has changed their lives. Tyler is now a captain of his own boat and teaches people wake surfing every chance he can get. Natalie has found peace in the wake and is planning to buy a piece of lake- front property to enjoy the next chapter of her life.
The community here welcomes these service members with real southern flare. Daily barbecues, bonfires, and music by the lake isn’t just enjoyable, it helps facilitate the camaraderie that’s the most healing part of these trips.
It is easy to see how these programs and others like it help our veterans physical and emotional well- being. Watching Natalie and Tyler (and all the other Service Members) hang-ten behind a wake surf boat is one of the most impactful things to witness.
Tyler says, “You know, you can live your life from a chair and be happy”, something that most of us would find hard to believe, but as you watch this video you can feel that it’s true.
This short film was created in partnership by Tailor Made Media and the Semper Fi and America’s Fund.
Directed and Edited by Chris Cotter and filmed by Chris Cotter and Sean Grasso. Special thanks to Wake for Warriors for co-hosting this event with Team Semper Fi.
