With a ton of excitement, we want to let you all know we are officially fully funded! (If you wanna know the details, we are jumping up and down and celebrating like victorious Olympians!)
Receiving 100% of our goal means we can now finance the remaining photoshoots and print the first 1,000 copies of "Rad Girl Revolution"!
The amount of gratitude can't be articulated. We can try, but are certain our words will fall short. You have all been so supportive, enthusiastic, and encouraging. We are... we're grateful.
Our official stats after 8 days:
101% funded!
$15,196 pledged!
440 backers!
