WOHOOO!! Goal has been reached!
Congrats on making your goal!
The suspense is killing me. If all 89 backers kicked in $12 more, we would hit that goal!
Isabel,
I haven't actually completed the donation process myself. The kickstarter page should walk you through the donation process. I think you click "back this project." Feel free to call if its unclear.
I am glad that you were able to see the library program! I would love to visit your classroom. Please begin an email exchange with me regarding a visit. What dates do you have in mind?
Thank you,
Amanda Austin
