Let's Start With What is Crowdfunding?

Though you may not have thought of it as crowdfunding, you’ve probably seen fundraisers on Facebook for different causes or products. Although crowdfunding can be used for a lot of things, simply put, it means collecting small amounts of money from a large number of people using an online fundraiser promoted through social media. It can be used to support a product, service, or cause. Common crowdfunding platforms you may have seen are Kickstarter and GoFundMe.

Crowdfunding is Growing

One thing to understand about crowdfunding is that it’s becoming very popular, especially for donation-based or cause-based fundraising. This type of crowdfunding helps people with medical expenses, mission trips, or other personal causes. In 2015, the crowdfunding industry raised $34.4 billion (up from $16.1 billion in 2014 and $6.1 billion in 2013) with strong growth in the donation-based fundraising segment (source: Massolutions).
