Charity Badge Final Report
sept202007
It is our great pleasure to report a happy ending to our "charity badge" fundraising campaign. Between July 19 and September 16, 105 donors contributed $16,015 to the film. That includes matching money from two generous donors who kicked in on the last day.
While we did not have enough donors to qualify for additional matching funds from sixdegrees.org, we are absolutely thrilled with the amount raised. Combined with what we already have on hand, it will be enough to go back into production (on a part time basis) this fall. Specifically, we are going to be doing archival research, footage research, scripting, and some shooting. My goal is to create a rough cut by the middle of next year.
Heartfelt thanks go to everyone who made a donation. We were overwhelmed at the number of previous donors who contributed again, and delighted at the number of new donors who jointed the team. THANK YOU!!
FYI, the charity badge will keep functioning, so donations made through it will continue to come to the film.
