Raising Money For Hackspace 2.5
Pledge Drive
Many generous members have pledged to donate money towards the HS2.5 project. If you would like to join them, please add your name and pledge here! Everyone who pledges gets their name on the Wall of Names in the studio (unless they don't want to!).

Crowdfunding Campaign
In addition to a traditional hackspace pledge drive, there will be a crowdfunding campaign hosted on Indiegogo, Go Fund Me or some similar service. This allows us to cast a wider net, and receive funds from non-members and by different payment methods.
Service
Using an online service gives us broader reach, a familiar structure, well tested mechanisms, multiple payment methods for donors, and the brand of the service to reassure people.
Exactly which service to use is still to be decided. Kickstarter is out because if we don't reach our goal, we get no money, and because they are focued on new products, not extensions to services.
Indiegogo was sucessfully used by Noisebridge for their reboot, and Go Fund Me is also in the running.
Specific Base Goal
- Target amount: £?

Stretch Goals

Rewards
We want this list to be unique to the hackspace. Any crowdfunding campaign can give out t-shirts (and we will too), but we have a lot of talented people at the space able to pledge completely unique things - turned wooden sculptures, cool laser-cut lampshades, leather dohickeys, entry to workshops - all sorts!
This list is quite vague at the moment - we need to expand it, determine values for each reward, make the items more specific by costing them and having volunteers "own" each item, and so on.
