[SGVHAK] BE Maker Campaign: KIT plus FREE lessons on electronics

[Claude Felizardo]

Been trying to get my son interested in electronics and have been wanting
to try an Arduino so I figured this was a good thing to try.  Looks like he
hit his goal of $88,888 in 35 hours, now at $105K with 34 days to ago.
 Waiting to see what he might come up with for stretch goals.
