Update #17: 24 Hours to go!

Posted on January 31, 2010

Wow! As of today at 3pm we are 341 backers strong, $22,877 pledged, and $2,123 left to raise to meet our funding goal of $25,000!

I am so appreciative to all of you. Thank you for taking the time to engage with this project, to contribute, and to spread the word about it. Because of you, I feel very confident that we will reach our goal.

That said, I am not doing any victory laps yet. The final $2,123 left to raise may seem small in comparison to what we have accomplished thus far, but it is still a large gap to close in these remaining 24 hours.

The momentum has been amazing today, and I ask that you please stick with me just a little longer to keep it going. Don't let up spreading the word, talking it up, and sharing the link! We are very close, but still need to cross that finish line. Let's finish strong!

You all have my deep appreciation. Thank you for taking part in bringing Jens's story to the screen.

Gregory
