There is a rich history of crowd funding. In fact the Statue of Liberty platform was funded with 160,000 donations. #CrowdGov #SXSW

Seems like all Crowdfunding examples tend to be for cities, no love for small towns where budgets are tiny #crowdgov

The platform for the Statue of Liberty was crowdfunded. #CrowdGov #SXSWi #SXSW

Dispelling the myth of crowdfunding as a new phenom, Statue of Liberty was a crowdfunded project. #crowdgov via @rodrigodavies

Justin W. Williamson @DubyaWilliamson

The platform the Statue of Liberty sits on was crowdfunded. Campaign started in March 1885 to raise $100,000 to pay for it. #CrowdGov #SXSWi

Upstream @GetUpstream

This came from 160K donations of about $23 dollars ($1 per donation then). #CrowdGov #SXSWi #SXSW
