Let's have fun doing good to put homelessness behind us.

Been There is a Trojan-horse-style movement led by a community of creative do-gooders transforming films, music, festivals and art into catalysts for positive societal change.

In the dynamic intersection of entertainment and social impact, Been There, led by visionaries Lenny Barszap and Aaron Brown, is a transformative force.
