Fundraising and Scrounging for Materials Project Group

We would like to build a 3-bin composting system and we have several plans, lots of suggestions for building, materials to use, ways to rodent proof, etc.  But we need money to build it.  Some of you may be interested in experimenting with projects on Kickstarter or IOBY, Which I've seen can be really successful. A friend of mine in Pittsburgh was fully funded for a dress startup within a few days after posting on kickstarter. I think it would work.

You would need to cost out all the materials, write a purpose for the project, etc.
Anyone interested?
We also have to contact Greenthumb who gives away materials and tools and Build it Green.  And there's lots to be had poking around on craisglist and freecycle.  We were offered a donation of bricks after I posted under the "wanted" link under "for sale."
