Why not run a kickstarter type thing and do this sooner, as a for-profit?


some things are better not rushed? I'm planning on doing kickstarter-like campaigns, for sure. The paperwork for 501(c)3 is in the hands of the IRS, so, no reason not to wait.


When you're ready you should check out Microryza: https://www.microryza.com/

They do crowdfunding for science stuff like this.


They aren't 501(c)3 and will only work with accredited research institutes.
