Here is the latest update from the #SingUpward campaign on indiegogo. I hope that it adequately expresses the overflow of thanks that we have for those who supported us over the past few weeks! Please read to the end for more of my own reflections in the wake of the campaign.
We are so thankful to all the friends and supporters who helped us raise so much toward our campaign goal. We fell short of our goal by a significant amount, but we won't let that stop us from singing at the top of our lungs. On the contrary, we'll sing still louder!
And we're moving forward with this project, even if Gio will have to come out of pocket for it. That's what producers are for, after all - making sure that the project gets done, at all costs.
Your contributions have already proven invaluable to the progress of our project, and as we finish shooting over the next few weeks, they will continue to clear the way for us. We are yet on schedule to have the video ready for Gio's album release on September 15. So please stay tuned for more details about that event.
As for your perks, most of you will receive yours in the next couple weeks, but some others won't be ready til September. We appreciate your patience as we get these together and regroup after our hard-fought effort to finance the video.
Peace & Love.

The #singupward campaign got me thinking - and praying - a lot over the past month. Please check out these new posts where I synthesize my thoughts and prayers, reflecting on the experience of the past month and what's yet to come.
At the Matt 6:24 blog, read about how I trusted in God and my community to come to my aid. Find out whether they came through.
And at the Kitchen Sink blog, read about my recent involvement at Word Up books and the grand opening party which occurred on July 26th (Word Up will be the setting for much of my music video, as well as the venue for my album release show in September).
