The 212 Society is an American non-profit organization dedicated to cultural and educational exchange between the United States (New York City in particular) and Morocco (the city of Tangier in particular). The 212 Society will support, organize, equip, and finance educational and cultural activities, in collaboration with sister organizations in Morocco, with a special emphasis on film and cinema.

The 212 Society is formed solely for charitable and educational purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Our mission is to:

1. Promote cultural diversity and understanding by supporting the screening of important films of the past and present in Morocco and the United States.

2. Organize and support, with money and materials, educational and cultural programs run by accredited nonprofit sister organizations in Morocco, including the Cinematheque de Tanger.

3. Make film, media, and artistic equipment accessible to students, scholars, schools, and associations.

The 212 Society's specific strategy to achieve this mission is to:

1. Organize programs in collaboration with the Cinematheque de Tanger, (Le Cinema Rif, Place du 9 Avril 1947, web site http://www.cinemathequedetanger.com).

2. Loan film-related equipment (e.g. projectors, video cameras, editing hardware, computers) for use by the CDT and other accredited nonprofit cultural and educational organizations in Tangier.

3. Finance and equip carefully selected programs of accredited nonprofit cultural and educational organizations in Tangier. (e.g. film festival screenings, seminars, documentary films.)

The 212 Society is a non-religious and non-partisan organization
