Being so close to completing this project, I am hoping you can get involved and help fund my project. I’m relying on your help now and have offered several rewards as incentives to donate towards my project!

Now you can get involved! If you can help me raise the money to fund this project, I have offered various rewards (as shown on the right) in return for your generous donation.
When you click on the link, you’ll be taken to a page where I have pitched my idea to the world. Please have a read of it and also there is a small section about me too!
I am looking to raise £500 and have clearly labeled where the money is being used, in the pitch. So far, I have raised 44% of the target but, at the time of writing, there are only 24 days left to raise the money!
The process is simple. Create an account, pay using Paypal and then fund my project with the money in your Crowdfunder account.
If you do fund and I am not successful in raising the money, do not worry, as the money will not be taken from your account.

I decided to use Crowdfunder as it’s a safe, easy and effective way to fund raise projects.
‘Crowdfunder is a new way for people to pool small amounts of money to back a good idea or project.‘
I’ve also decided to start writing a paragraph or so at the end of some posts giving a little more insight to my personal opinions and feelings towards the current project or task that has been laid out.
I wasn’t sure at first how to go down the funding route. I started off phoning around to local and national funding schemes but to no avail. The most common reply I had from them was that this is not a ‘community’ project….therefore they could not fund it. *Dial Tone*
I sat down and had a re-think about funding with my neighbour, who is also heavily involved in helping me with the project. He suggested to start with people I knew. Friends and family.
At around the same time, I got an email from a friend suggesting the website, Crowdfunder. I hadn’t heard of it before but it looked like a great way to collect the funding and show people how much I’m raising, all in one place.

Now I’m glad I have found a way to fund raise. So far relatives have put in over £100 and a good friend of mine who I previously worked with has donated another £100 so that he can design or choose his own object to put into the payload going up to near Space!
Please leave a comment or if I have missed any vital information, let me know and I’ll edit it!
