We did it! 100% Thank You All , now what?

WOW! Thanks to our friends family and contributors for making this possible!we have reached our goal of 3500 euros funding to cover the cost of Avah's commute...

There may be some who still want to support Avah with a contribution. For those who want to know more, here is a quote from our Indigogo Campaign FAQ section:

Q: What will you do with money that exceeds your goal?

A: Extra contribution funds would go towards the tuition and gear for Avah's ballet education for this year and the 2015/16 Season. For example her (many pointe) shoes, and ballet clothing.

And the rest of the story..

We took a chance to try the crowd funding route to sponsor Avah.
Because of the cost involved, Avah's commute seemed a high goal by itself and really we are pleased, beyond what can be explained here in this blog, that we have been so well received and supported. There are many costs which need to be paid for beyond the travel costs; including her shoes and outfits (every year a different color coinciding with the academic year), her tuition is also increasing every year as well.

What can you do to contribute?

We are offering photographs of Avah for purchase, if you contribute 30 euros you can receive one of these photographs with a personal thank you message.
This reward for your contribution is called a 'Perk'. The support generated by these contributions goes toward her commute and the other ballet academy costs mentioned above.

Exclusive for the last days of the campaign

This Exclusive New Perk is called 'Cinderella - Beating the Clock' and you can acquire this photograph of Avah with a contribution of only 30 Euros!

Avah at the Back to Bach Rehearsal and Nearly 80% Funded!!

Hello Again,

This week has been frenzied, the wind rushed up from it's winter place to nip noses and tease of the coming winter. Then the autumn warmed after the hardest cold rain washed the summer from our eyes. We are waiting and counting the days until vacation and school is out. Now Avah has vacation, starting next week, but tonight she and her fellow students may watch the final dress rehearsal for Back to Bach presented by 
the Dutch National Ballet.

After leaving home for school this morning at 6:45 Avah will be home at nearly midnight. Hooray for vacation!

The campaign is going very well, we are getting a constant trickle of contributors every day. Avah the ballet commuter has been nearly 80% funded! 

This is all possible because of you.

Thank you!

Please share or support Avah the ballet commuter

This is it, here we are.
