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:

 Spirit of Innovation Challenge: Students Grants 4 Social Good

Location: Houston, Texas

Empowering youth, entrepreneurship, & good. I love it!

Ayah (@IndiegogoCA)

 Piper: Smart, elegant, security and home automation

Location: Ottawa, Canada

Home security never looked this good! Piper’s fish-eye lens and temperature, humidity, and motion sensors let you monitor what’s happening at home, and its Z-Wave controller works with other devices to make your home smarter. I’d love two things: a Piper, and the puppy in the video.

 Lava Mae – Mobile Showers for the Homeless

Location: San Francisco, California

When was the last time you showered?

 Memphis Inner City Rugby

Location: Memphis, Tennessee

Indiegogo Partner Reality is helping ‘Memphis Inner City Rugby’ to bring athletic and mentoring opportunities for inner city youth through the power of rugby.

 The Juntos Shoe: Look Good. Do Good.

Location: Miami, Florida

This campaign’s perk are shoes historically worn only by the working class in Ecuador’s Coast, but that have become trendy for young Ecuadorian people in the past years. Running this campaign on Indiegogo means that those shoes will end up being worn all around the world and since they have an Ecuador map inside of them, everyone will know where they originated and it won’t create another Panama hat misconception!  To make it even better, for every contribution made, the campaign is donating school supplies to one 1 low income kid in Guayaquil, Ecuador!

 Send St. Joseph Magogo to Nationals!
