SCAC Member in Oscar-nominated film


Watch for our very own Mikail Davenport at the Academy Awards tonight! He is featured in the Oscar-nominated documentary short 'The Final Inch'. A heart-breaking and inspiring film, 'Final Inch' is about the dedicated men and women who work to eradicate the persistent polio virus, which remains prevalent in many of the world's poorest corners, and yet is largely forgotten in the United States. Mikail's story is part of the film's quest to bring awareness to the people still battling this disease and to the quiet army that go door-to-door and slum-to-slum to reach the last unvaccinated children.
