Update #6 · Feb 17, 2012 · comment

We are in the final 2 days! So much generosity by our community. We now have 284 backers supporting us for nearly 19k! Each 1k is another fellow we can support for 3 months!

I'll be spending the final 48 hours letting everyone know about our amazing new reward.

This is a truly unique reward, only available here.

We have been donated 3 original pieces of graffiti art by the artist Zeftawi.

Graffiti has become a huge part of the post-Jan25 scene. Here is a story from our site about it. Checkout "The Graffiti Revolution" on #18DaysInEgypt 

Please help continue to spread the word, you all are our best resource!

Cheers, Jigar
