John Mikulski raised $180 for his class in three minutes using Storybird.
How is that possible? He used our free Fundraising tool for schools.
It took him one minute to create the fundraiser and two minutes to print out the flyer and hand it to his students. They brought those flyers home, their parents visited Storybird to buy their books, and a box appeared in the classroom two weeks later stuffed with gorgeous softcover and hardcover stories. Easy.
And the $180? Automatically emailed to John via PayPal the moment his fundraiser was over. In cash. No strings attached.
We asked John about his experience with fundraising, how the parents reacted to it, and how he plans to spend the proceeds. His answers after the jump.
The Illustration Conference just put out their 2012 poster. Stunning. Illustration by Chris Buzeli, lettering by our fave Jessica Hische, and art direction by John Hendrix.
All of us at Storybird are saddened by the death of Steve Jobs. His passion and obsession for clarity, simplicity, and beauty did more than influence computers. He gave us a way to understand technology that wasn’t scary or complicated. He made meaning out of chaos. He gave us the best of what the world can offer: intelligence, taste, and wit. We will miss him deeply.
Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and the employees of Apple, past and present. Namaste, Steve.

Not long after Bezos left the stage in NY, our art director sent this around. I sighed. We’ll actually/finally have to consider Android, too. [Shakes fists at sky] Damn you Jeff. Your Kindle is on fire.
One of the many reasons we love Tom.
