We reached our initial $15,000 goal with a few days remaining! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all of our supporters! We will now be able to pay for a huge chunk of our project. Every dollar more will move us closer to funding this project to completion. Can we stretch to $20,000?
We've crossed the $12,000 raised mark, which means that we will be able to preserve our Home Show videos and digitize a portion of our archived photos! Thank you so much to our donors! Our $15,000 goal would just be the beginning. As we start the final week of this crowd funding campaign, please help us continue raising money well beyond our goal for this worthwhile project to save Gymkana's history.
