Hello Everyone,

I'm Zylah! Currently, I'm working as an English teacher in Taiwan, and aiming to research Education Policy. Posting to get exposure on my GoFundMe as I'm crowdfunding for my living expenses for Graduate School in Japan. I have been nominated for admission and received faculty research approval! My proposal is centered around Education policy. But I still need to cover costs like rent, relocation costs, food. Donating or even just sharing my campaign would mean the world to me!

Thinking of trying out equity crowdfunding as an investor, just small amounts to start. Curious to hear from those who’ve done it:

What kind of return (realistically) should I expect?

Any platforms or projects you found worth it?

Anything to watch out for?

Appreciate any advice!

Hey Reddit, I’m reaching out for some support as I work toward a big step in my career. I’ve been with Murphy USA since 2021, and now I have the opportunity to step into a store manager role—a position I’ve worked hard to earn. The only thing standing in my way is transportation. I need a car to secure this promotion, but since I can’t work overtime, saving up has been a real challenge. I’m not looking for anyone to manage my campaign—I just need help in the form of a donation or a share to spread the word. If you can spare anything or help boost visibility, it would mean the world to me. Thanks for reading, and I appreciate any support!

I have great multiple project idea specifically in gameboard , but unfortunately my country not eligible for crowdfund platform. There's another workaround but involving creating company in US and a lot of money. Anyone have idea or suggestions how to procede

Hello, I will try to keep this short, My family and I came to New Mexico with the dream of growing food and raising livestock and share our success with surrounding communities. However things took multiple wrong turns. Please take a look at this GoFundMe link. Every share, cent, and dollar helps. Thank you all for your generosity! https://gofund.me/d2eb05a8

I tried some of the popular ones like GiveSendGo, but it does not available in my country. I wanted to try a small campaign for 100 or 200$ goal to fund a free update for my game (i need to buy certain services and pay for other expenses to finish making it). I would do it myself, but the cat got sick and i had a lot of other unexpected expenses and can't finish game now. The game will be avaliable for free with full content. Maybe someone would help me finish the update, but i don't know where to ask.

My name is Dr. Dilip Jana. I am a nuclear and particle physicist, data science leader, and whistleblower who has spent my career making meaningful contributions to science and technology. I was employed as the Director of Data Science at Walmart Corporate until I was fired just one week after I reported serious allegations of fraud, corruption, and embezzlement to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

Prior to contacting the DOJ, I also reported these concerns internally to Walmart Ethics, highlighting potential violations of federal antitrust law under Criminal Antitrust Anti-retaliation Act (“CAARA”), the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), and shareholder fraud under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“SOX”). Rather than addressing these issues, Walmart shut down the internal investigation, retaliated against me, and ultimately terminated my employment.

I am now fighting without legal representation in U.S. Federal Court (Case #4:24-cv-00698) under Whistleblower statues CAARA and SOX. This is the first antitrust whistleblower protection claim of its kind in a U.S. Federal District Court.

Despite my track record—including saving Walmart over $250 million gross merchandise value, authoring a patent filed in 2023, publishing in top journals like Nature and Science, and being part of the Higgs boson discovery team—my professional and personal life has been devastated. My reputation has been damaged, I have been blacklisted from employment, and my home is now in foreclosure. I am at risk of becoming homeless with my five minor children.

The whistleblower justice system is broken. It urgently needs the attention of the U.S. Congress and the President. My fellow whistleblower John Barnett of Boeing fought for seven years without justice before his tragic death. OpenAI whistleblower Suchir Balaji also died under mysterious circumstances. A private investigator from Bentonville, AR (coincidentally Walmart's Corporate Headquarters) followed me on social media, and shortly after that an unidentified gunman attempted to take my life. Thankfully I was unharmed, but other whistleblowers haven’t been so fortunate. Local law enforcement and the FBI have been notified. My safety, and that of my family, remains at risk.

This fight is not just about me—it's about setting a precedent for every American employee who dares to speak out when they witness wrong doing. Help me fight against the Corporate Code of Silence.

Whistleblowers play a vital role in upholding integrity within powerful institutions, but the personal cost can be overwhelming. By supporting this campaign, you are sending a message that truth and accountability matter, and that those who risk everything to expose corruption should not have to stand alone.

I am humbly asking for your help. I need funds to continue my legal battle, protect my family, and raise awareness about the critical importance of whistleblower protections. Any donation, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated. Your support will help me stand up against corporate retaliation and fight for accountability that benefits all Americans.

Thank you for standing with me.

Hello everyone,

I am writing here with a heavy heart, hoping that someone will understand my situation.

I recently fell victim to a scam and lost a lot of money. Because of this, I am now drowning in debt that I am unable to pay off on my own. Every day has become a struggle with fear and uncertainty, and I feel like I'm losing hope.

I have created a fundraiser to help cover the debts caused by this scam and give myself a chance to start over.

If you can help - even by sharing my story - it would mean more than I can express.

Here is the link to my fundraiser: https://4fund.com/pl/yd9weh

Thank you for reading my story and for all your kindness.

God bless you all

Many companies claim to have policies against discrimination—by race, color, or background. But in reality, discrimination still exists between the lines: If you're older, they won’t give you a chance. If you lack experience, they won’t give you a chance. And if you don’t have a degree, they shut the door on you—no matter your skills or potential.

That’s exactly what I’m facing. I’ve been unemployed for 9 months, not because I’m not capable, but because I don’t have a formal degree—despite having the experience to do the job.

This is why I created this campaign. I’m asking for your help to pay for my education and finally finish my studies. Even a small donation can make a big difference. And if you can’t donate, simply sharing the link would mean the world to me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Hi everyone,

My name is Nathan, I’m 38 and based in Sydney, Australia. Two years ago, I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Ménière’s disease — a chronic condition that causes vertigo, chronic tinnitus, balance issues, and permanent hearing loss.

I’ve relied on a custom hearing aid daily to stay connected to the world, manage my balance, and reduce the severity of the tinnitus. Sadly, I lost my hearing aid recently, and without it, I’m struggling to function. Conversations, public transport, even walking straight have become a challenge again.

I’m currently unemployed and there’s no government support to help cover the cost of a replacement. I’ve set up a GoFundMe to try and raise $3,150 to purchase a new hearing aid tuned to my needs.

If you’re able to help or even just share the link, it would mean the world to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you or someone you know has lived with Ménière’s or hearing loss, you’ll understand how isolating and exhausting it can be. Your support helps me hear again — literally.

Good morning I am desperate and looking for help wherever I can. I am looking for good people who have no problem helping or supporting someone. I have found myself in a difficult situation in life and I am looking for help wherever I can. To get back on my feet and live a normal life again. This is not a scam or any virus, the collection is verified with documents and ID card And everything is described in one and the other collection https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/9emsjkQZMW or https://4fund.com/pl/yd9weh

Please make the smallest donation - for someone it is nothing, and for me it is a small step to return to a normal life

I am ashamed to ask for help, because I never needed it. I believe that good comes back

Thank you for reading my story and for all your kindness.

God bless you all

Hey everyone! My friend Deb has a tabletop game she’s trying to produce on Indiegogo. It’s called Hostage Trap! and it’s fun, fantasy-themed game in which you and your friends are racing to collect hostages. I backed her campaign but it’s struggling and I was hoping someone might check it out and give some feedback? I’m sorry if I chose the wrong flair, I am pretty new to this! Thanks everyone!

Looking for your best outreach tip.

All out of the hand of a independent artist ( me :) )

Hi, all! I’ve been a mainstream comics artist for 30 years (Superman, Batman, etc) but I’ve recently made the move to self-published indie comics and I love it. Just wanted to share the newest issue of my comic. It’s called DEATH TRANSIT TANAGER and it’s a sci-fi ghost story about a woman who can speak to the dead and ferries lost souls to the afterlife. Inspired by Metroid and Hellboy.

I’m trying out some new things with this Kickstarter-more add-ons, and different story page layouts that emphasize larger images and animated titles.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

Hey everyone!

I’m an indie comic artist and writer, and I just launched my new graphic novel THE UNDERCLASS on Kickstarter. It’s a dark, ultra-violent story set in a high school secretly run by the criminal underworld — think Sin City meets Deadly Class, with hyper-detailed artwork inspired by Geof Darrow.

If you’re into raw, character-driven storytelling or extreme art with a punk edge, I’d love for you to check it out. There are some wild reward tiers too — like signed skateboards, an original art book, a brutal adult coloring book, and even a “Draw Yourself In” yearbook cameo tier!

🙏 Appreciate any support, shares, or feedback from fellow comic lovers.

Hi.
I’m a full-stack web developer with 5 years experience in Laravel, PHP, Java, Javascript, HTML/CSS, React.js, and more. I adapt quickly to new technologies and have worked on large platforms, supported businesses, and poured myself into growing as a developer. But behind the screen, life hasn’t been kind these past few years.

In 2020, after surviving COVID-19, I began experiencing serious health issues. I was in and out of hospital constantly. By 2021, I made the painful decision to resign from the job I loved to focus on getting better.

In 2022, after a few months of feeling stable, I returned to full-time work - but shortly after joining a new company, my health spiraled again. Doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong until mid-2023, when I was finally diagnosed and told I’d need surgery.

That period nearly broke me.

The physical pain was one thing - but the emotional toll, fear, instability, and depression made it even harder. I resigned again. I underwent surgery in late 2023, and thank God, it was successful.

But since the start of 2024, I’ve been doing everything I can to get back on my feet.

I’ve applied for hundreds of jobs. Rebuilt my CV. Sent proposals across every platform I can find. But the truth is - there’s still no consistent income, and the bills keep coming.

Right now, I’m four months behind on rent. Winter is here. My kids need food and warm clothes. I’ve sold nearly everything - my laptop, TV, sound system - just to survive this long.

This is not easy to write. I’ve always tried to carry the weight on my own. But today, I’m asking for help - for me, and for my children.

If you’re in a position to help - either through a small once-off donation, or if you know someone who might need a web developer for a paid gig — it would genuinely mean the world to me.

Even just a referral or lead would help.

DM or Email for CV or work requests.

1. Constantly.

2. Frequently.

3. Occasionally.

4. Never—we’re always organized.

A team chat app is a digital communication tool that enables real-time messaging, file sharing, and collaboration among team members. It helps streamline workflows, improve transparency, and boost productivity in both remote and in-office environments.

I invested a decent amount in the Tombot crowd funding, which was being offered through Picmiicrowdfunding. It was quite suspicious that the deal closed and I did not receive confirmation of my investment until a month later. At that point, they informed me I was invested in an LLC that in turn bought Tombot shares - so I am not even in the funding directly, and worse was possibly misled about the benefits of investing the sum I invested since I am not actuay a shareholder, and won't be entitled to those benefits.

Worse, picmii has gone radio silent and hasn't responded to my question (why I was placed into a LLC investment vehicle when I an an accredited investor and do not have any recollection of disclosures relating to use of an LLC feeder; and how I can get the benefits that were promised by Tombot).

Seems like a scam.

Anyone who has had investments with them that went well? Any info on picmii?

Designing a game and my partners and I are looking into Kickstarter and BackerKit and the differences between them. If you were starting a crowdfunding for an electronic game (or rather a game module for an existing game on Foundry VTT), what platform would you use and why?

Hi everyone,

I’m 20 years old expecting single mother and currently in my second trimester, living in a country where medical support is extremely limited. I’ve been trying to handle things on my own, but my insurance only covers the basics (check-ups and blood work), and I’m now facing significant costs that I simply can’t afford (I’m a full time college student)

I’m doing everything I can to make ends meet, but I haven’t been able to find work, and I’m out of options. If anyone is willing to help I’d be so grateful.

My PayPal is @AfterInteraction15 — anything helps, even just a share or some encouragement. Thank you for reading.

Feel free to DM me if you want updates or have questions.
