SciFlies is a crowdfunding platform that allows the public to make micro-donations to support scientific research projects. Their grassroots approach creates a new model of funding that allows anyone to support research they care about. The platform showcases vetted research projects from all fields to receive funding. Micro-donations allow more projects to be funded that otherwise may not receive funding or have to wait. Researchers benefit from greater visibility, connecting with donors, and enhancing public knowledge of their work. Institutions benefit from raising their national reputation and status for embracing this funding model. Donors benefit by having an easy way to advance research that interests them and learn about scientists' work.
