We cannot thank you enough for jumping in and backing our film.  Your help is making a huge difference and we are so grateful.  After only three days, we are already one-third of the way to our goal, and we’ve gotten off to such a great start because of YOU! 

Two nights ago,we got together for dinner with the KNOW HOW cast, some of whom had just returned from college for the summer (including Niquana). It was so great to hear how much our young people are still growing and learning. We laughed a lot, as we always do (this cast has some of the funniest people I know) and talked a lot, as we always do. We talked about the film, about their lives, and about how exciting it is to see the support KNOW HOW is inspiring. 

We know that you’ve already made a difference, and we couldn’t ask for more. But since many of you have written to ask what else you can do to help the cause, we've been thinking. Happily, money isn’t the only way to help. 

Here are a few more ways you can help us make a difference: 

Spread the word to friends and family over the long weekend. We all know that this weekend is Memorial Day weekend. But did you know that May is also National Foster Care Month? As you gather with friends and family this holiday weekend, this offers a great opportunity to tell them about the film, and rally their support for the cause. And with May coming to an end, this is the perfect time to let folks know how easy it is to get involved and make foster care better. 

Let people know where to find us online. If you have time this weekend to get online, take a look at our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/knowhowmovie). There’s lots of information and posts (including more photos of our recent dinner) that you can share to help friends learn more about the project and why it matters. You can also follow us on Twitter at @knowhowmovie, and take a minute to share some of our tweets. 

We are excited to have you with us as we charge toward the finish line of our Kickstarter campaign and our film. Together, we are going to make a real impact. 

Have a wonderful holiday!
