July 2, 2015 - Celly introduces a new crowdfunding platform for learning organizations. K12 schools, universities, foundations, and local communities can create Celly social learning networks to raise money for projects, equipment, travel, and on-going learning needs.“We've listened to feedback from teachers, teachers, and parents, and we've heard one requirement loud and clear.
Schools needs ways to get money”, Russell Okamoto cofounder of Celly. “So we've built a simple, state-of-the-art crowdfunding platform catering to schools and learning movements.”
