== About this Campaign ==
This summer, Mozilla will be launching a learning & making campaign, targeted primarily at young people, to get them to use the summer to start becoming web makers -- teaching them to code in a fun, engaging, and somewhat informal way, as a pathway to making cool stuff on the web. We're calling it the “kitchen table” campaign for short — the idea being of 3 kids and a parent around the kitchen table — but branding is not final.
The campaign will:
*Focus on learning through making, letting participants take something they're passionate about and use that as a fun vehicle for learning.
*Launch in June on a single day to focus activities and provide participants something larger that they'll be a part of.
*Be open to anyone who wants to participate, and inclusive of many different toolsets (events will not be solely focused on Mozilla software).
*Provide badges for participation and follow-through.
*Be a collaborative experience, where people can share what they've made, and be inspired by what others have done (and then hack it).
== Campaign goals ==
*Begin to teach thousands of people to code
**This campaign won't transform participants into experts overnight, but it should give them a taste of what's possible and provide a clear path to learning/making more
*Grow interest in and awareness of Mozilla's webmaking initiatives and offerings
*Show web makers that they're part of a much larger movement and story, and provide a pathway for them to engage over the long-term

== Campaign Overview ==
== Task list ==
 
This summer, we want to launch a learning/making campaign, targeted at kids/teens/youth to bring them into our programs in a low-bar way. We're callaing it the “kitchen table” campaign for short — the idea being of 3 kids and a parent around the kitchen table — but branding suggestions are more than welcome. The overall pitch will be about "teaching to code" as a way of making cool stuff.


The campaign is described pretty fully in the posts linked above -- this page is meant to document what we need to do before we can launch. Here are some of the biggest outstanding questions:
