Your credit card will only be charged if the campaign reaches its goal of $8500 on the last day of the campaign. (September 26) If we do not reach the goal, your card will not be charged. Your card will be charged for: 1. The Pledge Level rewards and any add-ons that you purchase when the goal is reached at the end of the campaign. 2. Shipping when it is time for the orders to be filled. (December/January timeframe)

Digital Rewards: Digital rewards like the electronic (PDF) version of Bugzee and the Bees and the lesson plans and activities will be sent shortly after the campaign ends. (October) Physical Rewards: Once the books arrive (December/January) we will immediately begin to fulfill the orders. You will receive your books before they are available for purchase on other retail sites.

Currently there are five beekeeping organizations that we are partnering with: 1. Detroit Hives: 2. Gardening and Beats 3. Sprout and Blossom 4. Miss Humble B's Hive 5. Amaro Literacy Mission South Africa Just think how many Bugzee and the Bees books we can put in the hands of kids through these great organizations.

BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.

If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.

Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.

You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.

Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
