First, my sincere thanks to Erika Sanger, MANY‘s executive director, and her staff and board for the kind invitation to share my experience leading Weeksville’s crowdfunding campaign.
You’ll see from the video below that I touched on several areas:
- Some background on Weeksville
- The challenge we faced
- The setup of the crowdfunding campaign
- The importance of engaging an institution’s key constituents early
- The process of getting Weeksville’s CIG designation, as it currently stands
