A skiing and running film with the mission of shredding the stigma of mental health and suicide
Status as of June 1, 2024, goal is $40,000:
I appreciate that when I checked with Scott, he said posting about this fundraiser was fine.
It's looking more likely that Drew Petersen's Kickstarter campaign will reach the $40,000 goal in time to be funded. As of noon on June 3, the total pledged is almost $35,000 by 360+ people. There are just over 3 days left to the campaign.
As with all Kickstarters, if the goal is not achieved by the deadline then no money will be collected from people who pledged and the fundraiser will not succeed from a fundraising standpoint. Whether the goal is reached or not, the campaign is helping to spread the word about the mission of the film, Feel It All.
The link below is to a short video that includes an interview with Drew Petersen. The report was done after the premier showing at Summit High School on May 29 and before the second showing on May 31 in Crested Butte. The Colorado TV news reporter has been very supportive of the effort to make it easier for people to openly talk about mental health and suicidal thoughts.

Drew Petersen helps bring mountain communities together to talk about mental health
Happy to report that the Kickstarter campaign for Feel It All reached the goal of $40,000. :-)
While the money is important, it's also significant that over 400 people became an active participant after learning about the film and Drew Petersen's mission. The buzz from a successful online fundraising campaign can have lasting impact.
