About GBTV Foundations | Empowering Young Creators Through Animation

Our Mission

GBTV Foundations was created to help neurodivergent youth discover confidence, creativity, and connection through animation, storytelling, and digital arts.

We believe every young creator deserves opportunities to express themselves, develop meaningful skills, and share their voice in a supportive and inclusive community.

Why We Exist

Many neurodivergent young people possess extraordinary creativity, imagination, and storytelling potential, yet may not always have access to environments where those strengths are encouraged and celebrated.

GBTV Foundations exists to create welcoming creative spaces where young creators can explore animation, storytelling, digital arts, and collaboration while building confidence, friendships, and communication skills along the way.

Building Real-World Creative Skills

Through animation, storytelling, and collaborative creative projects, young creators gain hands-on experience with real-world digital media and production skills.

Participants may explore animation software, storyboarding, script writing, character design, voice acting collaboration, production planning, editing, and creative project development while building confidence, communication skills, teamwork, and leadership experience.

By learning through creativity and collaboration, young creators are encouraged to develop meaningful skills that can support future artistic, educational, and professional opportunities.

What Young Creators May Explore

We provide inclusive, hands-on, project-based learning opportunities in animation, storytelling, and digital arts that help neurodivergent youth build confidence, develop creative skills, express themselves, and connect through collaborative experiences.

Our Vision

Inspired by Graham's Journey

GBTV Foundations was inspired by Graham Bullard, an autistic teen who discovered confidence, creativity, and community through animation and storytelling. After developing his skills and building a YouTube audience of more than 13,000 subscribers, Graham’s vision became helping other neurodivergent young creators access the same creative opportunities, mentorship, and supportive communities that helped shape his journey.
