How to do a successful @crowdfund:

0. Be open and honest with your ask. This is a prerequisite and most important hence #0. Be upfront with what you need and why. Provide receipts if possible. This space is rife with scams and we can detect those like a Sixth Sense. If you’re legit, you have nothing to worry about. 

1. Cast about it. Constantly.* There certainly is a too much of course, so try and cast within those limits. Milestones like 25%, 50%, 69% etc are good as well as morning/evening status updates. 

2. Thank donors but only certain ones. You’d be surprised how many donors wanted to remain low key. Everyone’s different. Ask.

3. Make a walk & talk update about it. This puts a human face to and more importantly, trust in your cause - see #0

4. Use tools like @ampsfun to boost. Don’t blow your whole budget on this (you’re trying to raise money, remember?) but getting a lil boost helps. 

5. Go hard on Tuesdays. Warpcast Rewards and Tips mean the network has a little more powder than usual.

New in @crowdfund: Donate Anyway

If a crowdfund fails to meet its goal by its deadline, supporters are now able to Donate Anyway.

Donate Anyway prompts two transactions:
1. Claims the refund.
2. Sends the refunded USDC to the crowdfund creator.

Supporters can still Claim Refund using the other button in the dialog.

New on @crowdfund: Available Refund Indicator.

When a crowdfund you support fails to meet its goal by its deadline, you’ll receive a notification that you can claim a refund. 

In our latest update we also show a red Available Refund Indicator on the My Donations tab, and Refund Available pill on the crowdfund's thumbnail. 

Tap into the crowdfund and tap Claim Refund at the bottom of the page.

Dogs

I still have to treat her wound every day, but for the past three days, Jungle’s already been asking to play fetch. It’s still a bit too soon Jungle !!! 🎾

A huge thank you to everyone who helped with my dog’s emergency care. There were a few complications after the surgery, but thankfully I was keeping a close eye on the wound. She had staples to help close it, along with antibiotics and anti-inflammatories due to an infection, but each day, it’s healing a little more.

Thanks to your generosity, 75% of the medical costs were covered. I never imagined such incredible solidarity. The crowdfunding ends tomorrow, thank you all from the bottom of my heart 💜

Something absolutely magical and fantastic happened to me today, and @bertwurst.eth was the magician that made it happen.

Yesterday I made a cast about my dog Lada needing an unexpected surgery for a tumor - just shared my worries and anxieties, like I usually do here.

I was very grateful to receive a lot of support and encouragement, it lifted my spirits and gave me strength to go forward 🙏 

But never in my life could I expect that a simple cast like that would turn into a crowdfunding (?!?!) 😳 AND it would be completed within 3 hours?!?! 😳😳😳

That's the kind of magic that can only happen on Farcaster. 

Bert, you're our guardian angel. I will be grateful to you forever for reaching out when we were struggling and showing such beautiful kindness.

HUGE thanks to everyone who contributed to the donation. It means I can focus on providing the best care for my dog and not worry about the finances 😭

Lada sends her kisses to each and every one of you 💜 And I wish I could hug you all! 🫂

@bertwurst.eth’s crowdfund for Lada the dog’s cancer surgery exceeded its goal in just a few hours!

This crowdfund’s description and the cast that launched the project are a masterclass in crowdfund communication.

Heartwarming post from @klusya testifies to the power of Farcasters to band together and fund good ideas.
