We did it - 100% in 8 Days! Let's build on the momentum...
Hey Friends!
We are funded!
With the help of nearly 300 of y'all... we just reached our goal of $5800 late last night. Our HUGE surge came from Kickstarter featuring us as the top "Project (They) Love" in their weekly email. We are so grateful and humbled that the Kickstarter gang would single out our project to help promote with there being so many other incredible projects out there.
What does all this mean? WALK [YOUR CITY] is happening and will be built out!
So now what... with 22 days left? Reaching out initial goal will help us build out the initial "barebones" platform. Kickstarter is an incredible tool, platform and community so we want to capitalize on the momentum - allowing us to develop the website more extensively. With that...
Our New Goal:: $10K & 600 Backers -
- to grow our support community
- make multiple languages available in the sign "making" platform
- develop specific "city project" pages to enable different cities to share their projects

Reward Updates
We have realized that there are a lot of people who are interested in the WALK [YOUR CITY] tee but might not live or have lived in one of our 15 cityfabric.net cities. Great news, we will be offering blank tees with the "WALK [YOUR CITY]" printed on them.
HUGE THANK YOU AGAIN - THE COMMUNITY SUPPORT IS INCREDIBLE
We look forward to sharing more exciting updates along the way.
Cheers,
Matt
