What is Crowdfunding?

“Crowdfunding” means raising smaller gifts from many individuals through a secure and specialized online platform. Through crowdfunding, you become part of a community that comes together to help specific programs that need smaller, yet still critical, resources to maximize opportunities and minimize obstacles to student achievement.

We’ll highlight different funds every quarter. Thank you for supporting the Aggie Crowdfunding Initiative!
