The crowd-funding campaign for
Devotion-The Family Tree is now LIVE on KickStarter.

Carolena says, "I'm excited about the idea of community funding for this project, because we are a community and I want my world-wide family to be a part of this show, even if you can't be here in person for the event on 14 Jun 2013 at the Julia Morgan Theater in Berkeley, CA. I hope you love the rewards too, because I'm really excited about them. I tried to create rewards that I would want if I were you. Please pledge early, if we get enough attention KickStarter will flag us as a success story and put us on the main page. You don't pay for the pledge until we reach our goal of $20,000 so you aren't out-of-pocket for another month, if you're budgeting around a show or fundraiser. And, you can pledge more than once, and we'll thank you more than once!"
