I seen the Amazing Atheist raise money for what campaign he is trying out.

The problem here is quite a lot of feminists see the Amazing Atheist as misogynistic, and he IS an outspoken Anti-Theist. Donating to the charity directly may be better because some charities reject money that could bring them negative press.

I find that fundraising online only works if you have one or all of the following: A) have an existing fanbase B) enough friends who ACTUALLY SHARE the link you need C) have people who see it who actually care D) have the money to promote it using advertising
It really saddens me. Why? Because only those who can actually move hearts by be it charisma or already existing influence can help raise money. Or if the news picks you up or something. I remember Casey Neistat had raised money to help his friend get a cellphone. He put it on Kickstarter and told all his followers. It was funded in no time. Sure, the guy needed a cellphone. He also was a little but up there in the age department. But I can't do the same thing as that. If I said I have controlling parents who won't buy me a cellphone, it wouldn't be the same. Under 18, its listen to your parents. Over 18, it's buy your own phone.
Anyways. Have you seen some other times online fundraising has totally been affected by 'starpower'?
