This is the last weekend of the project for The Long Walk.  While we have met our goal, the more we raise the more we can do with the film.  I am having the film professionally packaged and am starting to look at the 2nd level of festivals to submit to.  We have already submitted for consideration to 17 film festivals. 

During this last weekend please inform your friends as to your support of the film and project.  you can send a email to all of your email contacts, post on facebook, mention on message boards, and much more.  Your help in this project outside of the donations is greatly appreciated.  It would be wonderful to be able to start raising funds to be applied towards the feature film.

I can't say how grateful I am for your support to this project.  I still consider myself a dumb poor street kid who has been blessed by God.  The reality that people are helping support this film astounds me.  I am truly not deserving of this kind of love and can't express enough how much I am blessed and appreciate it.

I am supporting the short film The Long Walk on Kickstarter.  It addresses the important subject of physical and sexual abuse.  I would encourage you to also support the film as best as you can.  - http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikefurches/the-long-walk-recovering-from-physical-and-sexual?ref=live

As you may know, the issue of physical and sexual abuse is a horrific event that is starting to get a lot of national attention.  A friend of mine who was abused as a child is making a short movie based on his book that deals with his own abuse.  I am supporting the film at Kickstarter and am encouraging you to check the project out.  You can help sponsor the movie for as little as $1 or as much as you want.  There is a video on the page that can tell you more about the short film, The Long Walk and a trailer of the film for viewing on that video.  Please consider checking out the page and supporting the film.  Indie film can make a difference in the lives of people, to think that we can have an impact on the lives of those who have been abused is a tremendous honor.
