Announcing the Winners of Hallowfund!

By

Last month, we announced Hallowfund, an opportunity for campaigns created between October 15th and October 31st to win $500 if they raised at least $100 by November 10th. Many incredible campaigns got started and are on their way to empowering campaigners to accomplish their goals.

Today, we’re excited to announce our 5 randomly-selected winners! They will each be receiving $500 for their campaigns. We can’t wait to see their finished projects!
