Update #11: Final Push To Prepare For The Finance Committee Meeting

Posted on January 23

We are currently 86% funded on our KickStarter project.  Tomorrow we have a big meeting with the Finance Committee.  I would love nothing more than to go to the meeting at 6 PM and inform them the goal has been met in two weeks time!

Remember the Bistro is willing to throw in $20 extra if you donate $100 or more.

PLUS you can always go in and edit your donation if you happen to find a couple bucks in your laundry.  Every dollar helps!

If you have friends that were on the fence about donating, now is the time.  We can do this!!!!
