Extension for Gimkit Pro Members Impacted by School Closures

EDIT: Since the school year has ended, we are not allowing any new extensions as of July 1st.

Less than a week ago we launched support for educators using the free version of Gimkit.

At the time, the move seemed like a good step toward supporting educators impacted by the coronavirus and COVID-19. But then Friday happened and school closures were expanded and extended all across the country.

As of now, 37 states have shut down K-12 schools entirely and over 32 million students have had school canceled. Some schools and districts are able to continue instruction remotely, while others are halted completely.

Things are moving quickly.

Large groups of educators are no longer doing instruction of any kind (remote or otherwise) and will not be using Gimkit for at least the next several months.

So, in addition to the option to increase the Kit limit for free members, we've added some relief for Gimkit Pro members.

We're providing a 4-month extension for all Gimkit Pro members.

Just log into your account and click the "Impacted by COVID-19" button in the left-hand panel from your dashboard to get an extra 4 months on your subscription.

We made accessing this extension as easy as possible. Two clicks, no questions asked.

For technical reasons, we had to build this for Gimkit Pro members on individual subscriptions paying via credit card only.

If you manage a Gimkit Group Subscription or are a Gimkit Pro Pass or Go member and your school has been canceled, please email us at hello@gimkit.com and we'll be happy to help you out.

It's been an unprecedented last few weeks. With everything that's happening and all of the chaos, we're grateful for you and your dedication to education and your students. Fadi, Josh, and I wish you all the best as we all navigate this together.
