- 4. Youth Radio Groups & Money • Lots of great ideas and content, many devoted listeners and producers. What most youth radio groups don’t have… is money. • Hope to use this call to build our capacity to develop strategies that work • We’ll look at crowd-funding and grantfunding, but themes carry through both approaches • The ace you all have up your sleeve: You’re storytellers and teachers. Fundraising is about including donors in the compelling story of what you do.
- 5. • World’s largest funding platform (yesterday passed $1 Billion in pledges from 5.7 million people) • Exclusively for creative projects (not charities or causes) • Kickstarter is also a *storytelling* platform: video, image, built-in blogging • Mix of commerce and patronage (not donation) • Creators maintain full ownership and complete control of their projects • Success rate of 40% (but 80% of projects that raise more than 20% of goal are successful)
