gogo complete - we're still a go

Enjoying a drink while watching the gogo clock countdown to 0.

We want to express our gratitude and say cheers to the contributers of our 1st fundraising campaign that helped us raise $2500 so far ($900 donated to Saucy Side Productions directly due to this campaign on top of the $1600 on indiegogo)...enough to rent some equipment and start filming again for a little while. :):)

We are also grateful to everyone who 'liked' the campaign, got friends to join our facebook group
(please keep encouraging others to join as this helps us with the "look we have an audience for this!" part of our proposal!), shared with their friends via email, twitter and their own web sites...you all helped generate some interest in the project while providing encouragement for us to see this through! 

In the final couple of weeks we sparked a competition by offering up a VIP perk for the person with the most referals to our site (next time I'll do this from the get go), and Jim Gorman was our lucky winner of the "high school" level perk - yay Jim for your awesome work helping us spread the word!!

I'm happy to no longer have the countdown clock ticking away, to have one less thing to stress about, and even happier that our team has the means to keep moving forward with production of our documentary!

If any of you feel like making a contribution to the project now that the indiegogo campaign is complete, you can make contributions via paypal directly on our educate-me.ca web site, or by contacting me at kathy@educate-me.ca

I will continue to update this blog and the facebook group page for any of you who want to follow along with us to the journey's end.

be well
Kathy

on behalf of the whole Saucy Side Productions team - thank you!!

March 16 update: you can now donate via the paypal button on this blog located on the right side. Just in case you're itching to contribute right away, hehe
