שלום אנשים,
חלקכם אולי פגש את לישה בשנים שהיא גרה בארץ (החיים
אילצו אותה לעזוב אבל היא עוד מקווה לחזור), האקרית
תוכנה וחומרה, חובבת חופש התוכנה ואחד האנשים המדהימים
שפגשתי. בין כל הפרויקטים המדליקים שהיא מעורבת בהם נמצא
גם ההאקרספייס המיוחד הזה בברקלי שמחפש כרגע קצת מימון
דרך קיקסטארטר. בארץ לצערי עוד לא ממש קם כזה מקום, משהו
עירוני ומרכזי וחברתי (אני לא חושב שהגראז' של ורדי
נחשב, אבל הוא צעד נחמד בכיוון). מישהו היה מעונין ליצור
משהו כזה?

Subject: HackerMoms do Kickstarter! Pass it on!
Hi family and friends!
Most of you know that my 2012 has
been all about education in hackerspaces.
Mothership HackerMoms in Berkeley is the place
that gave me the boost into the work that I'm
doing now, including the "Hack your PhD" project
with the CRI in Paris, the computer science
curriculum writing here in Scotland, and the
in-person teaching at hackerspaces, tech salons
and community centers all over. Mothership
HackerMoms is a fantastic organization, and the
first hackerspace ever to be built specifically
around the needs of mothers.
Thanks!
- Lisha
PS If you want to know more, here's a post I
wrote about Mothership HackerMoms last month for
the French Nightscience Blog

To:
People are seriously loving their mothers, if our Kickstarter fundraiser is
any indication. Each mom has a story for why she
needs this space. As a founder, here's mine:
HackerMoms gave me the courage
to balance a husband battling
cancer, newborn baby and a
toddler. Sean finally beat cancer just
this August. I beat cancer by creating
HackerMoms. These women taught me to
linocut, blowtorch resin, use power tools,
start a non-profit and laugh again. We
believe that happy mothers are good for the
family, the community, the world. I am so proud that
this village exists - with childcare.
We
want you!
After
6 months in our space, we need your help
to build a workshop with tools and
equipment, plus create a kids program
and business incubator for moms inside
it. Just
click this link to Kickstarter,
watch
our funny video, and click the righthand
"Back This Project " link.
I
hope that you can help us with a
donation pledge and by spreading the
word on Facebook, Twitter and by email
to your family and friends.
If
each of us 20 HackerMoms can get 20 cool
people to donate $25 each, we can make
our $10,000 goal by the November 18
deadline.
We'll send you gifts. Your dollars will
go towards
equipment, a DIY construction fund (we
are the builders), and hired experts. As
budget-conscious moms made a list (of
course) you can read with cost detailed
in our Kickstarter description. Here we
are in our size-doesn't-matter 1,000
square foot space...
We
have 20+
members (including one HackerMom
dad!)and our 25 + kids. Our
mission is to give mothers the time
and space to explore DIY craft and
design, hacker/maker culture,
entrepreneurship and all manner of
creative _expression_, with childcare.
Please
help promote HackerMoms by forwarding
on this email, retweeting, and sending
to your heavy retweeting friends. We
dream that someday, there'll be
HackerMom spaces in every city, so
that moms everywhere can have a room
of their own. We all thank you for
your generous support. And please use
this email as an excuse to come by and
say hi!
Thanks
and POWER TO THE MOTHERS!
Sho
Sho Smith and the HackerMoms
