KICKSTARTER

In January 2014, we agreed it was time to take Tom Hanks Day to a whole new level, so we hatched an idea and ventured into something none of us had ever done before. We came to you; THD party-goers, Tom Hanks’ fans, and all-round cool people the world over, and asked for your help. On January 21st, our Kickstarter project went live, with the intended goal of raising $9,000 to help us take Tom Hanks Day to new heights. That money would be used to expand the THD name and help set up this brand new website that allows you to create and maintain your own THD party/event. We weren't exactly sure what would happen, but in just 39 days, YOU made it happen. With 198 backers from 7 different countries, not only did we reach our goal...we exceeded it by more than $1,000! So, as promised, here are all the people that helped to make our project a success; the ‘Stars of THD’.
