Dallas, Texas (May 2, 2013) Caring For The World Films announced today its latest documentary project Hearts In The Himalayas has been awarded the Communicator Gold Award of Excellence by the International Academy of the Visual Arts. The IAVA honors only the most outstanding progressive and innovative visual marketing campaigns and is sanctioned and judged by an invitation-only body of top-tier professionals from a “Who’s Who” of acclaimed media firms. Judges include executives from Disney, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, HBO, MTV, and Yahoo among others.  The Award of Excellence, the Communications Awards’ highest honor, is given to those entries whose ability to communicate puts them among the best in the field.

Hearts In The Himalayas profiles the efforts of the Nepalese humanitarian organization Himalayan HealthCare, which provides medical care, education, and income generation opportunities to the mostly forgotten people who live in the remote foothills of the Himalayas.

“Having our work recognized by the IAVA is one of the greatest honors we could receive,” states Debi Lang, founder of Caring For The World Films. “We’re equally proud of our commitment to showcase relatively unknown, but successful charitable organizations who are accomplishing the impossible in remote locations with few resources.  This project is a celebration of the successful efforts of Himalayan HealthCare and what it has accomplished over the past twenty years as well as providing visual access to a region and culture that historically, has been ignored.”

This is the 9^th award for the film since its release in 2012.
