Update #4: 33% there!

Posted on November 21, 2011

Thank you all for supporting.  Because of YOU, we've made it 1/3 of the way.

With only 4 days remaining, we are asking all of our donors to spread the word and talk/post/tweet about some of the incredible incentives we are offering...especially with the holidays  around the corner.  Sports memorabilia, skullcandy earbuds and Soul Pro apparel make great gifts!

Update #3: Releasing the New Trailer

Posted on November 15, 2011

Thank you again for your support!  We have pledged to release our new trailer (not yet released) to all donors, if we reach our goal...

We have 10 days left to raise the remainder of the $40,000. If we don't reach that goal, none of the donations that have been pledged thus far will be received.  It's an "all or none" kind of fundraiser.  So, please continue to pass the link along to friends/family/teammates/coworkers etc. We are incredibly proud of this film and hope you are equally proud of supporting!

Really this film is not just for sports fans...it's for anyone who identifies with the immigrant experience...frankly that should be all of us.  This film is as much for YOU as it is for us. 

Update #2: Just over $1,000!

Posted on October 31, 2011

We just reached 4 figures because of your support! 25 days to go...Please continue to spread the word and share with your friends, families, teammates, and colleagues!

-Erika and Tony

Update #1: More incentives!

Posted on October 28, 2011
SKULLCANDY has just pledged to provide their signature earbuds for donations between $100-$500!  We are so appreciative of our donors thus far, however we will only receive these donations if our $40,000 goal is reached.  Please spread the word... every $1 is a step closer
