Woooah, Livin' on a prayer
(couldn't resist- that might be stuck in your head for a while)
Guys!!! Lovely lovely people! We made our first fundraising goal! The fundraiser reached $1,500 a couple days ago. The $1,500 goal for May was the most time sensitive goal, as we aimed to place a fabric order before the manufacturer price increase June 1st. We are going to place our order this coming week. These fabrics are the speciality fabrics that we researched to find the best performing fabric for our pads, the absorbent fabric and the PUL waterproof fabric. You can read more about how we choose the fabric for the pad here.
I'm so thrilled that we made this goal! We are able to take the first step toward making this first round of pads for distribution.
W are working toward the $3,000 goal for June 11th, this goal is less time sensitive and we will always accept donations. The rest of the $3,000 is for other material costs of the 500 starter packs, I will explain in more detail in a following post, if you want to learn more.
(If you donate through this site we will know that you are donating to Beyond Filters - but the donation screen will show Filter for Families).
