This is an application that uses videos to boost participation and promotion of the True Fans program.

Previous Work

Earlier work on Microfunding was pursued by Nikolay Georgiev and a group of remote collaborators, but the work wasn't completed. Brad Lewis took over the project from Nikolay, and Jacob Dalton joined afterwards. On Nikolay's advice it was decided to integrate the microfunding application directly with the wiki rather than building a separate site on a CMS. This allows us to use the wiki to provide internationalization and account management.
