Before we start, I need your help:

You might know I've been building a bedtime-story app for kids: DjamgaMind Kids. Over 600 stories for 4 to 8 year olds about Black history, African legends and Caribbean folktales. Free, narrated, no ads, no subscription. It quietly grew to around 400 downloads a day on the App Store without a dollar of marketing.

It's now a finalist in Melamoon, a national pitch competition for Black founders across Canada. I made the Top 10 in Vancouver. The next round is a public vote, and the Top 5 go to the Grand Finale in Toronto in October.

The ask: one vote. It takes about 20 seconds.

[VOTE HERE: https://djamgamind.com/pitch ]

One vote per person, and voting closes 22 September.

If you have a second after, my profile is here: and if you know anyone with small kids, the app itself is at https://djamgamindkids.com.

Thank you, genuinely.
