UNAWE Kickstarter reaches target!
5 June 2014

Yesterday UNAWE reached their €15,000 target in the Universe in a Box Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign. This means that over the next few months more than 160 boxes will be sent to underprivileged communities around the world and many teachers will be trained in its use.

There are still 4 days left in the campaign which finishes on Tuesday 10th June at 11am. There is still time to pledge your support and receive astronomy resources for your school or home. Any size of pledge is very much appreciated!

The campaign supports the efforts of Universe Awareness to share the educational toolkit, Universe in a Box, with communities around the globe. Universe in a Box is an educational kit to assist educators in bringing astronomy and space sciences to 4–10 year old children around the world. It was developed to meet a demand for practical, interactive, and fun resources to bring astronomy to the classroom, providing teachers and educators with over 40 practical activities as well as the materials and models required to do them.

At the time of writing this update; the Kickstarter video had been viewed 2,256 times, 1,314 people had shared the project through Facebook, 214 people had pledged their support to the campaign and a grand total of €15,570 had been raised. It is hoped that this incredible support can be continued through the final days.

All support is much appreciated. With any extra funds raised now its possible to send even more Universe in a Boxes around the world.
