Company Summary

Tired of being bombarded with email solicitations for funding or donations? Yeah, we are too, and we believe there is a movement away from email spamming. Givstream is a Facebook app that lets you raise funds in a live video format while also interacting with financial supporters in an organized setting (think Ustream + Kickstarter). Due to the team's political connections, the 2016 campaign cycle will provide a segue into the crowdfunding space.
