“High Shine” Kickstarter Countdown

This April marks a special anniversary of the International Ms Bootblack Contest and as part of the celebration we are creating a documentary about bootblacking, women bootblacks and the IMsBB Contest.

The “High Shine: 15 Years of International Ms Bootblack” Kickstarter is down to an hourly countdown–it ends ***8:59pm SATURDAY (PST)***

Every dollar counts…all additional funds we raise past the original Kickstarter goal will go toward paying for post-production editing.  To those who’ve given: thank you SO much!  Please consider asking your family, friends and fellow members of your clubs & organizations to help, too.

Please repost this announcement to your timelines and feeds and in any groups where it would be appropriate and welcome. Won’t you please help us tell the story of these incredible members of our community.
