Every week, we give team members at Indiegogo an opportunity to talk about the campaigns that have caught their attention. Here’s what we were talking about this week:

Ballet Rwanda: creating an arts space for children
Location: Kigali, Rwanda
Ballet Rwanda’s journey has been pretty incredible. The campaigner, Caroline Joan Peixoto, started this ballet school 3 years ago from nothing, and is now teaching 120 girls ballet out of her garage. Let’s get these girls a proper studio! It’s also a Fixed Funding campaign, so they need to hit their goal!

Nic/Insights
Location: Cairo, Egypt
Independent media collective in Cairo building out the cultural activism that arose from Egypt’s inspiring revolts? Yes please. To ensure total independence they won’t take any money from governments or NGOs so they started this campaign to keep themselves functioning and awesome.
