commented on a project updateFriends & Supporters, Thank you so much for supporting the Street Dreams Documentary. The past few months have been a great learning experience for us and we have seen received great feedback and support from all of you. Documenting the YouthBank venture has been extremely interesting, and the group is planning to take another site visit to Lagos in the fall. The organization is also looking to possibly expand to other countries as well, including India! Through the Kickstarter campaign we were able to raise $7,842, which was about 80% of our goal! We are hoping that you will be willing to resubmit your pledge as a donation here and of course the original listed rewards are still active. Thanks again for all your support-- we honestly could not do this without you! Cheers, Lily & the StreetDreams Team

Posted project update #1Final Push!
Thank you guys for all your generous support! We now have less than 2 days to go and are 78% funded. But if we are not able to raise the remaining 22% then we lose everything we've raised!
Can you help us out by posting the link on your twitter or facebook accounts? Even better, if you can send out an email to your family and friends that would be amazing!
Cheers,
Lily + team
