Crowdfunding Education

Crowdfunding Education

Teachers are often overworked due to administrative tasks and underfunded for their planned school activities, but their passion on insisting every child gets the education they deserve keeps them going. A new platform called Give.my intends to make a teacher’s job easier by letting them post their projects online in order to crowdsource funds for these. Tandemic’s director and co-founder Kal Joffres joins Give.my’s co-founder Felix Chong, and teacher Nazira Roslee, who has a project posted online, to talk about this new peer-to-peer fundraising approach to education.
