Thank you for your interest in participating in LaunchKU. We encourage you to provide as much information as possible to help KU Endowment staff assess whether your project is appropriate for the LaunchKU platform and whether or not you and your team possess the commitment needed to run a successful crowdfunding campaign.
Please note: Participating causes must have an existing fund at KU Endowment into which gifts can be deposited, a SOFAS account into which gifts can be transferred, or the ability to obtain one of these. Please check with your department head, dean's office or advisor to determine whether an existing fund may be used to house gifts if there is no specific fund set up for your cause.
For projects with goals over $10,000, contact Brenna Leahy at bleahy@kuendowment.org before applying.
