Message from Kickstarter

Kickstarter campaigns make ideas into reality. It’s where creators share new visions for creative work with the communities that will come together to fund them.. Based in New York, Kickstarter is an online crowdfunding platform and community that enables artists, musicians, filmmakers, designers, and other creators to raise funds for various community projects focused on movies, music, art, theater, games, comics, technology, fashion, food, design, and photography. Individuals who back these projects are offered tangible rewards and one-of-a-kind experiences in exchange for their pledges.

Kickstarter will create tools and resources that help people bring their creative projects to life, and that connect people around creative projects and the creative process. Kickstarter will care for the health of its ecosystem and integrity of its systems. Kickstarter will engage beyond its walls with the greater issues and conversations affecting artists and creators.

Creator disappeared after successful funding, will not respond to messages. Kickstarter customer “service” offers nothing but form letter platitudes, no help in resolving the issue.
