Submit a Project Idea!

Thank you for your interest in crowdfunding through CrowdThunder at Georgia College & State University. Please apply at any time.

Current students, faculty and staff seeking funds for specific projects are eligible to use the CrowdThunder platform, pending the submission of an application, review and approval. All groups, organizations or teams are allowed to lead one project per school year.

This application will be used to evaluate your project's suitability for crowdfunding.

If accepted, project leaders from each group are required to attend a CrowdThunder training session where they will be given the resources and training to successfully run a crowdfunding campaign.

For questions, please contact Julia Sweeney at julia.sweeney@gcsu.edu or 478.445.5002.

A few notes:

Please read the CrowdThunder toolkit before embarking on a project through crowdfunding. This toolkit is designed to walk you through the steps necessary to have a successful project.
Each CrowdThunder project must have two Project Leaders. Project Leaders are the main points of contact for the office of University Advancement and will provide updates (new videos, social media postings such as Twitter and Facebook, campus events, and email) throughout the campaign. The Project Leaders will help delegate tasks to other group members.
For more information on the mission of Georgia College, please visit http://www.gcsu.edu/about. All projects should help further the mission of Georgia College by providing an exceptional liberal arts experience.
