Crowdfunding is one of the quickest ways for individuals to raise money for a project, need, or cause. When promoted correctly via social media, email, and word of mouth, a crowdfunding campaign has the potential to reach hundreds, if not thousands, of people.Some campaigns even go viral and vastly exceed their goals! Of course, a crowdfunding fundraiser will only be successful if the campaign creator actively encourages members of their networks to donate to the campaign.
