Helping Global Girls Through Crowd-funding


We'd like to introduce you to Catapult, the first crowdfunding platform solely dedicated to advancing the lives of girls and women around the world. Melinda Gates, Beyonce, Salma Hayek, and others have joined as curators, funding campaigns and often matching donations for users. Another unique thing about Catapult is their transparent reporting to funders and the engaging social media element they incorporate into fundraising. Check out a great introductory video about the platform, here: http://shorefi.re/15EVk7w

Catapult was chosen as the partner for the "Sound of Change Live" concert presented by Chime For Change, founded by Gucci, in London on June 1. Beyonce is headlining, with Florence and the Machine, John Legend and Ellie Goulding on the bill. For the first time ever, fans attending a charity concert will get to choose exactly where their money goes by funding a project from the site.
