'Fortua' is a crowdfunding platform that helps users fund their outdoor endeavors. Although there are many different crowdfunding platforms in operation, none of these services are specifically designed for outdoor-related fundraising. This online platform makes it easy for users to raise funds for their next adventure by connecting them with an audience of other outdoor enthusiasts.
Fortua is designed for those who are trying to fund a personal or charitable outdoor adventure. Unlike other crowdfunding platforms, Fortua gives fundraisers the option of asking for donated gear, expert advice or even volunteer time. Creators are also encouraged to post insights, tips and advice that may be useful to other users. The idea is to help users fund their outdoor endeavors by reaching out to people who enjoy the same types of activities.
