this topic shouldn't be here but i find it awesome the  websites provided below are reliable and great . hope you will find this interesting.
you had always listen  that all you have to do in order to succeed is just to come up with a good idea would be considered naive, to say the least. That was before crowdfunding.
Crowdfunding is a communal way to gather funds for the realization of an idea, a project, a business or a non-profit cause. How does it work? You pitch your idea online and whomever is interested can finance your idea with any sum of money they would like to donate. Your idea can be an internet startup, an art project or even a new product.
