DonorsChoose

Crowdfunding is a new way for you to raise money online for your not-for-profit, charity, social enterprise, community project or person in need. Open to everyone making the world better. 100% of the chosen donated amount goes directly to you. We don't charge campaigners anything to use our services and post a project to our platform. We use crowdfunding to fund our work, just like you do. Donors only give to us if they get a great experience and want to. Make it yours by uploading images and embedding videos from YouTube and Vimeo. Reward donors with something in return. Tell donors the difference they're making. We give you the flexibility to run shorter campaigns or longer ones. Steer potential donors to certain donation amounts. Set up individual fundraiser pages underneath your main campaign page. Change the branding on your donor receipts. Add your logo and colors. Control what emails go out to your donors, fundraisers and administrators when certain events happen.

Kickstarter campaigns make ideas into reality. It’s where creators share new visions for creative work with the communities that will come together to fund them. No matter what, creators always control how the work comes together, no 100-page grant applications, no donors demanding you modify your message, no last-minute edits from investors. When backers chip in funding and help spread the word, they too become part of these independent works. Tapping into our community starts with activating your own. Most successful projects build a snowball effect, winning over friends and early supporters who then share the idea with their networks, and signal their support to the wider Kickstarter community. The snowball can get pretty big. Over 20 million people, from every continent on earth, have helped fund Kickstarter projects. Our mission is to help bring creative projects to life. We believe that art and creative expression are essential to a healthy and vibrant society.
