| Crowdfunding Redefined: Crowdfunding is a relatively new industry that is built on an age-old concept: People helping people. Historically, this has meant people helping others within their community, but times have changed. Now people can reach across town and even across continents to help people they have never even met. This, of course, can be a good thing, but there are people who are only too happy to take advantage of the kindness of strangers and therein lies the crowdfunding industry's greatest challenge: How do you know who to trust First Funder has answered this question by creating the world's first partner-based crowdfunding platform. What is Partner-Based Crowdfunding First Funder partners with entrepreneurship programs and other community-based organizations to tap into the power of their communities. Each partner is given a branded portal on the First Funder website through which they can fund themselves and their initiatives. There are no one-off campaigns on First Funder. Each and every one is sponsored by a trusted community organization. First and foremost, each of our partners is tapping directly into the funding power of their own communities. However, First Funder links all of the communities together so that a member of one trusted community can browse any other trusted community to find and fund the initiatives that matter most to them. We think we have a great approach and we're not alone Since launching, First Funder has been featured in dozens of publications, including: Wall Street Journal (September 14, 2012) Barron's (September 8, 2012) Dow Jones VentureWire (September 13, 2012) Boulder County Business Report (September 28, 2012) |
