*Members: please talk up the Makership to potential new members. Makerships are a good way to interest minorities and women in LVL1. Emphasize the experience and the opportunity. Getting a project done is less important.
*Makership Application Deadline is the last day of each month @ 11:59 PM.
*Submit your project for a chance to win 3 months of LVL1 membership and a $100 reimbursement toward your project expenses.
*Apply at www.lvl1.org/makership. Also, send any questions about how to submit a successful application to www.lvl1.org/makership. We want to award a Makership!
*If your application is not approved, PLEASE revise and resubmit next month.
*If you would like to donate ($5/mo) to this worthy cause, see one of the directors and we can set you up!
