Update and New Goal!

January 29, 2020

Hi everyone

 

Thanks to your overwhelming support, we have just about reached our original goal in less than HALF the time of our campaign! This has been absolutely incredible and we sincerely appreciate anyone who made a contribution to the team.

 

To keep momentum going throughout the next couple of weeks, we've increased our fundraising goal to $5,000, which would be able to cover almost all travel expenses to Launch Week in Alabama! Again, thank you to all those who have donated for your support!

 

Thank you!
