2. Whoopi Goldberg
Whoopi Goldberg took to Kickstarter to raise funds for her documentary film about Moms Mabley, a legendary female comedian. She asked for $65,000, which isn’t an excessive amount when it comes to the Kickstarter game.
Her campaign was successful and raised over $73,000 for the documentary. When asked why she didn’t just fund the film herself, she said that she was funding the film but needed a bit more. The documentary went on to be nominated for two Emmy Awards, so I guess all is well that ends well.
