Crowdfunding site enables supporters to volunteer their time

Longtime Springwise readers may recall the Landshare campaign from KEO films, an effort we covered back in 2009 that aims to match would-be gardeners with landowners willing to share their arable land. That initiative is apparently still going strong, but recently we came across another one by the same UK-based team: Peoplefund.it, a crowdfunding site that’s designed to connect fledgling community projects with people interested in supporting them.

Imagine that!

Most of us can’t imagine getting out of our cosy houses on a cold February day. For others it’s an opportunity to jump into ice cold waters to raise funds and awareness for charity. This is where you come in!

That’s exactly what GKF co-founder Sandrine and a great team of volunteer kiters and sailors are doing on February 4th.

The challenge is to kitesurf and sail 22km across the south Evoikos Kolpos (channel) in Greece, to mark World Cancer Day and raise funds for charity.

All proceeds will be divided among:

BeStrong Greece: founded in 2007, it is a non-profit organization raising awareness, increasing outreach and facilitates collaboration in an effort to improve the experience of people with cancer.

Medecins Sans Frontieres: is an international humanitarian organization that delivers emergency aid, to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare. The Greek branch was created in 1990.

Global Kiter Foundation: is a non-profit Foundation empowering and enabling people with physical disabilities to break barriers through sport, and gives underprivileged youth new career opportunities while taking action to keep our environment clean.

Support this fantastic fundraising event, by visiting our donation page.

newsflick:

Markus Reugels makes worlds appear in water droplets. He uses high-speed photography to capture the exact moment a droplet frames a planetary backdrop. He places images of the planets in the background and then lets the drop fall, triggering his camera at the correct split-second moment.

Amazing picture !

An energy-saving socket concept that’s not for the easily startled
The PumPing Tap is a spring-loaded electrical socket that physically ejects plugs belonging to appliances and electronics that are not being used but still drawing small amounts of energy in standby mode.

A great idea!
