Berikyuu!

Dear Hello! Project Fans,

The MM18inUSA survey is officially closed. On behalf of the entire staff of Nearby Ltd., thank you for your participation, your dedication, and your cooperation. To say this grassroots project has been a challenge would be an understatement. After several weeks of planning, meetings, countless social media posts, a YouTube video, a weekend of offline canvassing, and a collaboration interview, we managed to receive over 700 survey entries. For a staff of only 5 people, this is a monumental accomplishment! You might be wondering, “What happens now?” The answer is simple; we will take the data we received from the survey, compile it into comprehensible charts and figures, and present it to our sponsors in our next meeting, in hopes they will financially back a US concert. For those of you who filled out our survey, keep an eye out for an email from us in the future as a token of our appreciation! For those of you who did not fill it out, we hope you consider supporting us as our journey continues. The survey may have ended, but this is only the beginning. Once again, thank you for doing your part in this project, and we hope we can come out on the other side with some good news!

Sincerely,
Your Nearby Team:
Caryn, Juliana, Danielle, Noelle, and Jennifer

^ There's been a surprisingly large amount of pushback from this, unfortunately. But that's not going to slow us down. Perhaps people will have a change of heart once an official announcement drops.

Not to be vague, but good things will happen to those who fill out the survey. 

Think of it as a token of our appreciation!

***EDIT***

I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Tron at Slope Club regarding this campaign. If you're still skeptical about this project's authenticity, this video will answer any questions you may have.

THE SURVEY CLOSES EXACTLY ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!

Please fill it out if you haven't already. If you already have, thank you for your support, but please SHARE it anywhere you can.

We still have a bit of a ways to go before 1,000 entries, so let's do our best to get as many as we can!

**UPDATE**

Our survey is more than half way of reaching its goal of 1,000 entries! Here's a YouTube video to help spread the word.

Thank you again for those of you who filled out the survey! We can't wait to bring this to our sponsors and make something happen!!

Looks like Lehua is pregnant (and is due very soon). She has a baby registry at Babies R Us.
