After parents of the cast convinced us not to hire a "stranger" to produce Season 2 -- rather to pay for the season's episodes with yard sales, bake sales, and other fun events -- we also realized we needed a public widget to track our progress.
Of course, no fundraising has begun yet on Season 2. Right now our focus is on securing our Board of Directors -- which our nonprofit status is waiting on. Three of the five positions have been filled but those last two are as vital as the rest and cannot be skipped.
So, while we work (daily!) on finding just the right people to sit on our Board of Heroes, we built a Season 2 widget. The widget tracks the funds raised for the next episode -- in this case, Episode 1 of Season 2. The widget is really neat because it shows our exact progress and who has donated! Isn't that cool?! When we start fundraising events, we'll add all the funds earned at the event to the widget. That way, everyone will see our progress :)
Another awesome thing about the widget is that folks can set up re-occurring donations! That's right -- SUBSCRIPTIONS! Supporters of the show can easily set up an automatic monthly donation of $5, $10 or even $250 per month.
