Dear Jeremy Kressmann,

Thank you for featuring Conflict Kitchen in your article Pittsburgh’s Conflict Kitchen: Axis of Edible? on July 9th.

We have recently launched a campaign on Kickstarter.com, a website that helps innovative projects get funding. We have had a successful launch with Kubideh Kitchen and have sparked many conversations about Iranian culture and politics. Now we need your help in making our next
stage of Conflict Kitchen as successful as our last.

In October, Kubideh Kitchen will go out of business and change identities in order to highlight and provoke discussion around Afghan culture. We would greatly appreciate if you wrote a follow-up
blog post highlighting our Kickstarter pledge drive to help us reach our goal of $4,000 by the end of September. Donations will go towards the creation of our next iteration, Bolani Pazi, which will serve Afghan food wrapped in a custom-designed wrapper printed with Afghan perspectives and opinions. Your blog post will be featured in our newsletter and other marketing media.

Here is a link to our page, which includes a video and blurb explaining our efforts:

Thank you in for your continued support and interest.
