It’s official, the ConnectingDirectors.com t-shirt crowdfunding project surpassed it’s fundraising goal of $1,000 on SoFund.Us Tuesday afternoon.

There are still 2 days left to back the campaign. When available the t-shirts will sell for $24.95+ shipping. If you back the campaign you will get the t-shirt for $20 and free shipping.

There is a very sweet reward for a funeral company willing to back the project for $5,000. The reward is a 12 month ad on ConnectingDirectors.com (saves you $1,200+).
