YourStreet.com Announces New Crowdfunding Site in Wyoming
YourStreet represents a unique variation on popular crowdfunding sites where people can allocate their money to projects, ideas, inventions, and even charities that speak to their interests, beliefs, and needs. The platform is divided into three categories, each designed to serve a specific YourStreet user.
Those with targeted funding goals for ideas, inventions, patents, or products and those looking to fund an idea can visit the “Contribute” section of YourStreet.com. And those seeking to raise funds or donate to a charitable cause can use YourStreet’s “Assist” area.
“Whether an investment or project owner, or someone looking to assist others financially in the pursuit of their goals, our goal is put people in control of their own futures,” remarks YourStreet founder Ryan Greene.
YourStreet.com is fully functional during its open beta testing phase and project owners are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to list projects for free during this time. After the beta phase, YourStreet will continue to offer a highly competitive pricing model for all participants.
Crowdfunding PR, Social Media & Marketing Campaigns 
This is an interesting hybrid model. I’ve heard a lot of complaints that you can’t raise money on Kickstarter for causes and it seems like YourStreet could help solve this problem. I wonder why Kickstarter shys away from offering for-cause crowdfunding as part of their services.
