Everything Roof Video and Campaign Launch

So, apparently it's Wednesday. Yesterday—that would make yesterday Tuesday, yes?—I ran around the Centre For Social Innovation hunting for speaker cables and coordinating the signing of signatures and re-re-revising grants...

I ran into one of the lovely animators (almost literally) who asked me how everything was going. She smiled and watched me sweat for a minute while I pushed the corners of my mouth up in attempts to form some similar sort of face and mused: it was going great, but dang, it had been a crazy week!

"It's Tuesday," she said.

So it was. And it was a SERIOUS Tuesday. I don't know what that means, but it was quite a day. CAPS, italics, you get it. We arrived at CSI before nine a.m. (I rarely have pants on at this hour) to prepare for the lunchtime launch of our long-awaited Everything Roof video (!!!), directed by our hero, Josh Raskin and made in part by our heroes, everyone we know.

To coincide, in the afternoon, we also launched our online video and fundraising campaign on Indiegogo and Vimeo. We also managed to get our grant application hand-delivered to the Evergreen offices—and even wandered around the Brickworks in sunny relief afterward; see photos below. In between all of this I attended a couple of meetings and inhaled an amazing vegan, gluten-free pizza from the CSI farmers' market (seriously amazing. Go to there).

Anyway, I know you're dyyying to hear what I did with the rest of my day (I hit refresh on webpages to watch numbers go up) but without any further adieu (or brackets or run-on sentences) HERE is the video! Almost 1000 people have seen it in its first day up. If each of those people were to donate just $10, we would already be able to reach our campaign goal!

Please visit our Indiegogo campaign page by clicking here and donate if you can. Any amount helps!

Help us spread the word! Blog, Tweet, Facebook, ICQ, whatev!

We like you.

We hope that Evergreen loves us as much as we love them. If you have yet to visit Evergreen Brickworks, go now. It's an amazing wonderland of all good things for Earth and people. A few enticing photos below.
