Show HN: We're helping kids access capital

  • Fundraising for school groups, sports teams, etc. has always been such a challenging and tedious process for youth. How many candy bars and candles can you really sell to your friends and family?? PiggyBackr does a fantastic job making group fundraising FUN and "competitive" for youth. A much needed application!!

  • Cool idea, looks well-executed, and definitely serving a worthy cause. Do you have any evidence that this is better than the current way of doing things, which I guess would be candy drives and magazine subscriptions and all that?

  • Dig the idea, but what do you guys do that is different from going through other crowdfunding platform. What makes you more than just a kickstartr/indiegogo clone with an education theme?

  • This project is awesome. I work with a wheelchair basketball program that raised a ton of money using Piggybackr and the platform made the whole process so easy. Thanks!

  • Wow, wish I had access to this when I was in school; this is orders of magnitude more effective than going door to door selling gift wrap.

  • Great way to level the playing field for kids!
