The SciFund Challenge is all about crowdsourcing research funding. You can go to the site, read about what science studies people are proposing to do, and donate to help support their research–even $5 helps.
Even for a broke college student, $5 is typically affordable. Seriously? Forego a latte at Starbucks and make a difference!
I’m extremely excited about this project. Some proposed studies have raised MORE than they were asking for!
