What is Crowdfunding?

Crowdfunding is a fundraising method that leverages the powers of the internet and social media to raise money for yourself, a family member, a friend, your club, a school, or a community. Instead of solely relying on traditional sources of fundraising, crowdfunding allows individuals to raise funds from a large number of people online.
