"Book for kids"

Dear All,

I have just received an email from Dr. Micaela Crespo Quesada Chair of the Policy Working Group

MCAA, about the interesting iniative here in object "A Book for Kids" recently presented in the MCAA General Assembly and Conference in Salamanca.

Here below her message with the last progress and news about the project:

"Of course we welcome all kinds of contributions and publicity is going to be what we will need the most.

In terms of financial contribution, you will be able to pledge as much as you like during the crowdfunding campaign (that we are preparing now and will launch in the near future - about 30-45 days). In this campaign, we will propose different “tiers” of contribution with different associated “perks”. E.g. we would propose the hard-cover book for an amount, and then the hard-cover book + ebook + printable colouring pages for a higher amount. We haven’t yet defined all the tiers, but you will be able to see them and choose the one you prefer during the crowdfunding campaign. We will also offer a school pack tier in which we will include a number of books, a poster and an educational guide for the teacher to be shipped to the school of the pledger's choice.

In terms of publicity, we will need the members of the MCAA to share the link to the campaign as soon as it goes live. The success of the project depends on it, since we need to reach at least 15’000 EUR to cover the expenses to produce the first book. For the time being, I’ve set up a “coming soon page” (which you’ve probably already seen) at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/my-super-science-heroes-marie-curie/coming_soon. Make sure to register in that page (and confirm! it’s a 2-step process) to stay informed and be alerted when the campaign is finally live. You can share this link already with your entourage, and they too will be informed when the campaign goes live."

For the real success of this initiative it results very important to share and disseminate as much as possible the information and link reported above.

Thank you in advance for your attention and support.

With best regards,

Seba
