The Greatest Innovation in Olympic History

The Greatest Innovation in Olympic History

For most Olympic athletes, crowdfunding has become the greatest innovation in Olympic history, allowing these athletes to fund their expensive travel and lodging expenses when qualification events are close to the games. Crowdfunding platforms like GoFundMe.com, IndieGoGo.com, Dreamfuel.com, and Rallyme.com have made it possible for athletes to generate large numbers of small sums to cover the costs of training, equipment, travel, food, and lodging. Without crowdfunding's help, many Olympians would struggle to make ends meet, and their supporters would be forced to watch from afar. Crowdfunding is a potential game-changer for helping Olympians achieve their dreams.
