Danielle DiMare, the creator of Kindra explains a little more about the inspiration behind the fantastic collaborative bookmaking service. “Hiya! I’m, the creator of Kindra. For more than 10 years, I’ve been making these keepsake books for my family because I believe everyone deserves to know how special they are to the world. About 2 years ago, I was inspired to figure out how to digitize this gift-making engine and make it available to world.
Prior to pursuing this dream, I spent 15 years helping NYC create citywide arts, technology and enrichment programs for young people. I know a thing or two about bringing big ideas to life. Driven by my lifelong passion for community and creativity, I decided to focus all my energy into creating Kindra – a powerful vehicle for collective kindness. Come join the journey to amplify Love in this unique and memorable way!”
After you start your Kindra book, providing photos, text, quotes, references and more, the process of creating a Kindra book takes approximately two weeks from concept to print and provides an easily accessible online area where you and your collaborators can collect all your content. Once you have all your material online you can then start to design and edit your book. Tweaking the design until you are happy with its layout, before sending it to the final printing and shipping stage. Making sure it’s delivered in time for a gift to give at your special occasion.
The team at Kindra has already been busy creating and printing 100 beta books and have mastered the “art and science” behind the creation of each personalised Kindra book. Now the team require funding to help further automate the design and printing process and need your help to do so. just the first few days since launch and thanks to nearly 100 backers, Kindra has already blasted past its required pledge goal with still 32 days remaining.
