Yesterday, on Valentines Day, the feature length Frisbee documentary the Invisible string achieved its goal of raising $25,000!
That is great. Not only did they get the money needed for such an important movie, it took them less than 2 months to raise this money! Sites like Kickstarter.com and Fundrazr.com allow people to easily donate to causes that are dear to them. No longer are there large fundraising events where people try to get millions of dollars/euros. Now a movie can raise $25K or, in the case the Portuguese Beach Ultimate team, just try to raise 3,600 euros to help players go to the World Championships of Beach Ultimate.
One interesting fact about the Invisible String fundraiser. More people donated $100 than the combined number of people donating $10 and $25. Clearly people give with the heart.
