Block Club Chicago had tiers of rewards, but the one that was most interesting to me was that they incentivized people to sponsor a membership to their publication for someone else who maybe wouldn't have been able to afford a membership otherwise. For anyone who donated for two memberships, they got a t-shirt designed by a local artist on top of the perks from the other giving levels.

I think launching a hyper local publication like Block Club through a Kickstarter makes a lot of sense, because it builds a groundswell of grassroots community support and pushes the organization to prioritize building relationships, trust and buy-in in the neighborhoods they hope to cover as an essential piece of their model from the start.

They've raised $26 of a $400,000 goal, and it ends on November 14th. It began September 15th. I think one of the issues was that it did not have enough examples of actual veteran stories, causing people not to not to donate.

Just looking at the amount of projects and the demoralizing stats for journalism projects, I think a lot of people can be discouraged. But I think it's really cool that we can see models of kickstarters and how they pitched their projects to people who were potentially willing to fund them.

It looks like it could be effective. BK Deep shows that if you have a community already you can leverage Kickstarter as a part of a broader strategy. Alone it doesn't seem to work that well.

Asking for too much at once. Newsbud seemed like an interesting project, but their video seemed like it was from the 90s. Even still, they raised a lot of money, but not nearly enough to reach their almost $1M goal. Maybe they should have done it in stages.
