Introduction to crowdrise
Overview
CrowdRise's fundraising model is based upon the notion of making giving back fun, which will lead more people to do it, and the fundraisers will raise more money than they would have otherwise. The platform uses gamification and a rewards point system to engage users to participate in fundraising and donating.
Its primary model is donation-based, and the campaign defaults to keep-what-you-raise, making it good for charities.
