I like the idea. I wonder how much "return" financial contributors would want. I'd suggest allowing financial contributors to split a set sum between recipients. I've often liked the idea "I'll contribute x amount to whatever, this is how I'll split it per month" and being able to do that easily.

Not all contributors look for returns. There are people who are willing to contribute to a cause instead of say buying a TV. We see such contributions on gofundme to help out people in need.

Of course everyone wants a return! But it might be a return in satisfaction or something else that's hard to quantify, not necessarily money.
