The point I find interesting is that FundHer.com (the mother's company/cause) is the website on the campaign and not one specifically for Mackenzie's project.

I looked at the website and the about page has the following, "Pioneering entrepreneur scholarships, FundHer is raising $1 million via crowdfunding."

- joshdotsmith 14y agoYeah, the mom is the founder of a company about crowdfunding for female entrepreneurs. And she was one of Fortune's "Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs." Why does she need help buying her daughter a laptop? Sorry to be so cynical, but this looks super sketchy.
- chii 14y agoI have this reserved feeling about kickstarter - if only kickstarter can give out equity in the venture, instead of just act like a pre-order system where the customer takes on all the risks, but only get the merchandise, while the owner of the business reaps the reward(profits) if the risks don't pan out, but suffers nothing if the venture fails.
