My projects on Kickstarter and GoGetFunding can potentially gain donations for the work hours spent preparing, typing stories, and publishing, even for getting a new laptop with a large GB external drive memory and hard drive.

I will try two or three funding applicants, but I will go through the small print of the application guidelines, whether it is for an individual or with the organisation.
They are more or less successful in finding a solution for the community. New Zealand’s economy is not good for everyone.
