Summary
Hi, it's Tiffany. Thanks for your participation in this round. There are two final things I wanted to share:
First, my life's work is advancing women and girls. It's pretty much why I'm on the planet. So the world will get a return on any investment you make in me as a founder.
Second, The Cru was featured on the podcast, The Pitch. Listen until the very end. Three out of five investors committed on air. At the time, we were the only company who had that many investors commit on air and actually invest. In fact, all three of them — Charles Hudson(Precursor), Elizabeth Yin(Hustle Fund) and Jenny Fielding(The Fund) — have followed on in a subsequent round. They believe in this company. I hope you do, too.
