Summary: Imagine thousands of individuals contributing to your business or project.  Crowdfunding is basically connecting “crowds” directly to those who are asking for funding.  Crowdfunding platforms/websites offer an easier, less complicated way to find, vet and support individuals, causes, organizations and firms and contribute or invest directly without a middleman.
