I just wanted to share a quick note of thanks. On December 6 I posted a stack called I’m here to bug you again. It was basically a plea to donate money to the documentary film I’m making called Generation Covid, which documents the harms to children from prolonged school closures.
And I just want to say you all have really come through.
Overall, we’ve raised just over $21k through our Give Send Go.
Some of you joined this Substack as founding subscribers (upon my request) and I’ve sent those thank you books out as promised. I hope you’ve all received them by now. I’ve also put that money into the production fund — into my production company called Sey Everything — as promised. About $1200.
And lastly, one of you wrote me directly and invested $20k in the project!
So all in, this little effort raised about $42k.
So wow. Thank you. I’m immensely grateful and we are working hard to edit the film. And this definitely gets us through the next few months of post-production.
Wishing everyone a happy holiday season.
In support of independent writers and journalism, I’ll be adding a few more paid subs to my Substack reading as a gift to myself. What are your favorites? Tell me here and I’ll sign up!
From mine to yours — xx
Donated. Look forward to seeing the documentary. Happy holidays to you and yours!
Hey Jennifer!
Happy Holidays! Hope the film is a huge success. If you sent me a book, awesome. If not, well.....get on it :)
