Crowdfunding

In order to make Brisko: A True Tale of Survival a reality, we're going to need your help. Crowdfunding is an exciting way for you to get in on the ground level of an amazing project that you want to be a part of.

The app that we've been telling you about is going to change Holocaust education for generations to come. It will have discussion capabilities, historical resources, diagrams of war machines, and all of this will be technologically tied into the book itself. It's going to be a phenomenal way for students and other interested readers to interact with Laura's story. If you don't know about Laura's story yet, please go to www.atruetaleofsurvival.com to read a summary. Sign up at the bottom of the page for a free teaser of the book.

In order to build this intricate app, we need to raise the money. Apps that do what we need Brisko to do can cost up to $50,000! This is a small price to pay for something that will be around for decades and decades, with constant updates. It's a small price to pay for educating the next generation of young people through a medium on which they feel comfortable learning.

To raise this money, we decided not to go for the big investors. Instead, we opted for you. A whole community of you. By using crowdfunding we can pool a strong community of many hundreds of individuals and make this app happen.

What will be in it for you? Firstly, we would never ask you to donate any more than what you feel comfortable donating. There are people who will want to put whatever they can into this project, and will have plenty of resources to do it. Others might not have the same resources, but they still would love to be a part of Brisko.

There will be a tier of donation amounts, all multiples of 18*. The amounts cover a large range, so that no matter what, you'll be able to find a tier that suits your comfort zone. Each tier will come with rewards for you. The rewards will have great value! You'll be able to essentially preorder the app and the paperback copy of the book. There will also be other exciting incentives.

Thank you in advance for becoming part of this project. We will keep you updated as we move forward with launching our fundraiser, and making Brisko: A True Tale of Survival a reality.

*18 is the number of Chai in Jewish tradition. Chai is a celebration of life! This number is traditionally given in multiples as a gifts in the Jewish community.
