CROWDFUND4FREEDOM is refreshingly clear: it’s not about charity in the traditional sense and , you're not just donating; you're investing in a movement driven by passionate people focused on real change and putting freedom-first.
What You're Actually Crowdfunding
Here's a breakdown of what your contributions support:
- Core Team Continuity: Funds go directly to providing a basic income for the initiators, Jeroen and Atreya, who are dedicated to the freedom movement after a pivotal journey through the Himalayas. This also covers future key roles like operations and sponsorship managers, ensuring the continuity of events, projects, and campaigns supported by IAM4FREEDOM Heroes.
- People-Centered Projects: Your support directly fuels participation-based initiatives that drive action, not just awareness.
- PLACE4FREEDOM Safespaces: You're helping to establish and maintain safe spaces where people can be themselves, both online and offline, locally and globally.
- IAM4FREEDOM Community: A core goal is to promote and expand the IAM4FREEDOM platform, community, and projects.
- Future Rounds for Initiators: Future funding rounds will continue to ensure a basic income for the initiators.
How It Works
This crowdfunding model is distinct from traditional approaches:
- No Product Sponsorships: Contributions do not go towards sponsoring products or services like printed materials or commercials, which are at zero-costs thanks to our SPONSOR4FREEDOM Companies. Instead, you're funding the team and projects directly.
- No Traditional Donations: Unlike charities that fund education, water wells, or medical research, CROWDFUND4FREEDOM specifically funds the project's continuity, the core team, the community, and collective contribution.
- Transparent & Purposeful: Every euro is spent wisely for long-term impact, building a freedom-first infrastructure. All funds are tracked, publicly documented, accountable, and visible online.
- Future Funding: The movement aims for guaranteed future funding through ticketing at projects like DANCE4FREEDOM and revenue from SHOP4FREEDOM merchandise, alongside our growing community and increasing CROWDFUND4FREEDOM amounts.
Why It Matters
Your involvement means more than just giving; you're actively:
- Joining a movement: You become part of a collective effort for freedom.
- Protecting spaces: You help safeguard environments where people can truly be and express themselves.
- Part of a global ripple effect: Your contribution is part of a larger impact, initiated by two individuals and amplified by many.
From Awareness to Action: Fueling the Freedom Movement
We've shown what's possible with pure dedication and no funding, sparking significant awareness during the "Project Aware" proof of concept, try-out phase. Imagine the even greater impact when that foundational drive is empowered by a little support, allowing the movement to continue where it might otherwise have stopped.
With just a little, we've proven we can accomplish a lot. If two people, in their voluntary time, could ignite so much, picture the global ripple effect when they, joined by people worldwide, can fully prioritize freedom and keep the momentum going. Now is the time for action to truly realize that potential.
