Crowdcube is a leading European equity crowdfunding platform that lets individuals invest in startups and growth companies and become shareholders in businesses they believe in. Founders pitch their vision to a large community of investors, raising the capital to scale while building a base of loyal, invested supporters. For investors, it is a way to get behind innovative companies early, sometimes for a small amount, and to share in their potential success. Crowdcube has helped fund a wide range of well-known brands across sectors from food and drink to technology and sustainability. Investing in early-stage companies carries significant risk, including the loss of your money, so it is best approached with care and diversification. But for anyone who wants to participate in the growth of ambitious businesses rather than watch from the sidelines, Crowdcube offers the opportunity. Learn more at crowdcube.com.
Kindness has a beautiful way of multiplying. Share something thoughtful you recently did for another person, your community, animals, or the planet. Your story does not need to be grand, even the smallest act of kindness may inspire someone else to do good today.

Chances.org has been run by one volunteer, me, since 1999. Here's how you can help keep it going.

Hello, it's me, Amelia Carrie. I have been running and updating Chances.org since 1999, for free. I pay for the software, hosting, maintenance, apps, and more. That's more than 25 years of my life devoted to doing something I love.
However, the fact is that I am a senior now and due to having to compete with AI for computer graphics work, I can no longer afford to run this site on my own. I need your help, not only to keep it online, but to keep it growing. That's why I am updating Chances.org with a Donate button and a Supporters page.
If you can't afford either, you can still help for free by using the sharing buttons below. Thank you!
With gratitude,
Amelia Carrie
For investors and dreamers: If you are an investor with the means to help Chances.org grow as big as Change.org or GoFundMe, please write to me at ChancesCharity@Gmail.com.
And if you have great plans and ambition, I may even let you take this site over, because everybody deserves a chance.
You can't have change without chances!
♥️ Support Chances.org
Since 1999, Chances.org has been dedicated to sharing hope, inspiration, and positive connections. Your gentle support helps keep our interactive tools free and accessible for everyone.
Thank you for helping us make a difference! Chances.org is not a registered nonprofit, so donations are not tax-deductible."
