Besides pooling resources, crowdfunding is also is a way to work on "Crowdvocacy", a term coined by Platoniq; read this for how active citizen participation on funding projects could represent a more fair means to create policy https://medium.com/@platoniq/crowdvocacy-amplifying-democracy-by-bridging-political-participation-digital-campaigning-a364a2cfd6db
