Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

Hi everyone,

Over the past week, The Sharing Project has gained a ton of major media support. From front page of the National Post, to Global TV's 6pm news, an interview on CKNW and CBC, it appears as though people are really open to the concept of "sharing" as a viable economic alternative in creating a city that consumes less and connects more. But now we need your help!

Our project has 6 days left to raise required funds to help us identify demand for sharing in Vancouver neighborhoods. I'm asking you to share our indiegogo campaign and consider contributing in order to help us raise the funds needed to help shape policies and grant-making, and empower entrepreneurs to kickstart sharing in their communities.  Contributors receive perks from Modo, the Vancouver Tool Library, The Hive and more.

Please check out The Sharing Project campaign & share with your networkshttp://igg.me/at/thesharingproject

The project only has 6 DAYS left on the campaign and any amount helps!

Additionally, click here if you're from Vancouver and would like to OPT-IN to our survey and add your voice to research into Vancouver's sharing economy.

Thanks so much for sharing this around!
