Changing marketplaces and crowdfunding

Is there anything we can't crowd-fund these days?  I have a friend who recently raised almost $20K on Kickstarter for his art studio (Baker Prints Kickstarter).  VolumeOne has funded the summer concert series in Eau Claire with a successful WePay campaign of community donations. One of our very own APSS majors has been raising money through IndieGogo to produce a film (still waiting for my personalized song and video shout-out, Roskowski).  It's a fun time to have an idea and need money.
