Helping Kiwis fund the things they care about - a grown up Pledgeme says how it’s done
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - 29 March, 2017 )
Well,
hasn’t PledgeMe grown up.
The crowdfunding platform is only five years old, but as its founder (and self-titled chief bubble blower) Anna Guenther told a Deloitte Private gathering recently, in that time it has managed over 1100 successful fundraising campaigns.
That adds up to over $14 million raised “for anything you can think of, and not think of,” she says.
