Update on our Fundraising Campaign

 

So far, we've raised $11,328!  Several large donations have also been sent by check.

Expanding our social reach is critical to the success of our campaign.

Indiegogo uses algorithms to rank a campaign according to how much money it raises in a given amount of time, its number of comments, the content of the campaign and how many times the campaign URL is mentioned on the great Ocean of the Internet.

Right now, our campaign is featured on top of the second page in Indiegogo under "Community"

We need to get our campaign on the front page to get more attention from the general public.

It's kind of amazing but $3,368 have been raised from 17 donors visiting the Indiegogo website.  These people do not know us.  They saw our campaign while browsing Indiegogo and decided to support us. 

So, here is how you can help (without having to donate anything!)...
  • Post our campaign on Facebook.  
  • Tweet (and re-tweet!) about our campaign
  • Forward the email announcement you just received (with the cabbage lady) to all your friends
We are doing very well and need all the help we can to bring national attention to our campaign.

We've got 26 more days to go.

Let's make it an extraordinary community effort.

Thanks for all your support! 

Poki and Dominique
