The McAllen Chamber of Commerce invites the community to learn, share and support McAllen’s newest invention called “Mirta™ The Wearable Purse”. The product is a versatile concealment pouch that is secure and discrete. It can be wear as a broach, accessory on jacket, hat or belt, or as a purse.
The invention solves the problem of losing a purse in a discrete and fashionable way. Anyone wanting to simplify her purse and feel secure carrying her most valuable items will benefit from the invention. It’s like you are wearing a personal vault.
The crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.com needs to reach the goal of $2,400 to move into the first stages of production. Crowdfunding is asking a crowd of people to donate an amount of money for a specific cause or project in exchange for various rewards. With most projects, backers (people who support a project) donate to a project in exchange for tangible, non-monetary rewards such as the finished product, a t-shirt or a “thank you note.” There are several websites that allow creators to request crowdfunding. The most famous one is Kickstarter.com, but you may also consider indiegogo.com, rockethub.com or fundable.com.
The McAllen Chamber of Commerce invites the community to learn, share and support the project by visiting www.mcallenchamber.com or the project site on Kickstarter.com.
Each sponsor or backer can choose one of various generous incentives for their contribution. Any contribution makes a difference! The deadline to support and share the project is December, 31, 2013.
For more information of the product, contact the inventor Mirthala (Laly) Quintanilla at lalyquintanilla@yahoo.com or Eduardo Millet at (956) 682-2871 or emillet@mcallenchamber.com
