Crowdfunding By the People, For the People
Summary
Crowdfunding is for everyone. Anyone can campaign for funds and anyone can contribute.
Description
Crowdfunding comes into play when communities come together with an anchor institution around a common goal, like access to a supermarket. With strong leadership, capital gained through crowdfunding can multiply through matching grants from larger organizations. Beyond matching grants, the level of demonstrated community interest is quantified and monetized through crowdfunding campaigns, which often amplify community engagement through social media.
