An incredibly worthwhile Kickstarter :D

I freaking love LeVar Burton so much right now -- not that I didn't love him already, but he is giving so much of himself for this initiative, and the goal is so absolutely worthwhile. They want to put the books and videos from Reading Rainbow online and in classrooms, and are planning on distributing it for free to disadvantaged schools.
Every Home. Reading Rainbow’s digital collection already contains hundreds of books and video field trips… but with your help, we’ll be able to make the Reading Rainbow library available on more of the devices modern kids use to consume content. When we meet our initial goal of $1,000,000, we will launch a new version of Reading Rainbow on the single most-used digital platform: the web.
Every Classroom. Together, we want to provide Reading Rainbow to as many classrooms as possible FOR FREE! When we meet our initial goal of $1,000,000, we can put Reading Rainbow in over 1500 classrooms at no cost to the schools!

Really excited about this -- and needed some reassurance of faith in humanity right now. Thank you, LeVar, for being a reminder that, in a violent and uncaring world, there are still amazing heroes :)
