I’m all about finding creative ways to fund our projects, programs, and businesses.

Grants are amazing — but they aren’t the only way to bring your big ideas to life. That’s why we’re covering crowdfunding at the Grants For Creators Virtual Summit.

I invited Angela Hollowell to share how she crowdfunded a short film and exceeded her goal in just two weeks.

Yes, Angela had the cash in hand to move forward on her film project in only 14 days, without waiting on grants.

Impressive right?!
