Summary
YouLobby, a new crowdfunding service, enabled Robert Applebaum and his grass-roots advocacy group, ForgiveStudentLoanDebt.com (FSLD), to raise $1,000 in just under 5 hours; and the campaign is on track to hit its next goal of $5,000.
Description
"YouLobby really reinvents democracy because (using YouLobby) the average American now has the opportunity to impact government whenever he or she wants" explains Litton. Whereas historically, the only time that most citizens played a significant role in the course of government was at election time, YouLobby allows people to send a message daily in the form of a professional advocate who can navigate the legislative mazes in Washington, D.C. and the state capitols.
