So, I haven’t asked for donations on the internet since my wife went to Peru a few years back. But, I’ve been accepted to Startup School and if possible, I’m hoping to make it. Unfortunately, it’s not in the budget.
All I need is about $600, so I figured, well, why not give it a shot. I created a campaign on ThePoint, which can be found here: https://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/send-phil-crissman-to-stanford-for-startup-school/headquarters
I’m extremely passionate about the web and startups, and I can absolutely say that I don’t believe the trip will be wasted. If a few dozen people can spare $10-20, I’m there. If it sounds worthwhile to you, please consider helping out. If not; no problem. Thanks!
As noted in my comment on news.YC, I’ll fund the remaining $300 if you’ll agree to capture lessons, insights and notes from Startup School to post and share on OnStartups.com
