My housemate Kevin Hallagan is doing an awesome documentary about our local Binghamton, the effect of the changing global market scene on similiar post-industrial small cities across the nation, and the hopeful face of the future as our hometown cities learn to stay relevant.
If you grew up in a small town whose prime growth was during the post war boom, this documentary directly affects you.
Visit his site, which is linked above to learn more about his project, and visit his kickstarter page if you'd like to help him by donating. I'm definitely a little late in saying this, but he has just under a day of fundraising left and he only needs $400 dollars!
He has raised over 14,000 dollars for the documentary in 29 days, but if he doesn't raise the full 15k by tomorrow night, the money is returned to the donors. All 160+ of them!
There are some awesome incentives to go along with donating, and this is one of those rare times where a person gets to make a legitimate difference and be a part of something really really cool.
Be sure to check out his site throughout the upcoming year to see updates on his progress. If you don't, his tortoise Onyx will cry.
