Who We Are...
   

        Ronnie Kroell founded 4+1 Productions on April 21, 2005 after he saw the need for someone to address the growing issues created by stereotypes and false assumptions about the differences between people.   Supported by the alarming statistics involving hate crimes and discrimination cases, Ronnie began to engage other members of the community who also shared his passion for positive change.
