WE MADE IT! http://www.phoeniciavoicefest.org/2013/04/28/kickstarter-we-made-it/ http://www.phoeniciavoicefest.org/2013/04/28/kickstarter-we-made-it/#comments Sun, 28 Apr 2013 21:59:28 +0000 maria http://www.phoeniciavoicefest.org/?p=1412 WE HAVE REACHED 100% FUNDING ON KICKSTARTER!!!

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU to you all for giving and spreading the word for the Kickstarter campaign! We will be receiving your pledges and will use them to pay this summer’s festival orchestra! Your fervency and devotion is the only reason this was made possible, and the whole Festival of the Voice team sends our love and gratitude to all of you.

We will be working on preparing and sending all the rewards you have chosen in the next several weeks. Look at this photo, and what the power of community can accomplish!

We are now in the last 43 hours of the campaign, and we have reached our Kickstarter goal, allowing us to pay for 50% of our orchestra cost (or the full production of Rigoletto!). Let’s try and single out all the people we know that had an intention of giving, and who have not done so yet, to get us closer to paying the orchestra for Verdi’s Requiem on Sunday!

We are so grateful to you all, THANK YOU!!!
