Our Crowdfunding on Startnext
Let’s Raise Our Gateway’s Foundation
All nine gateways of Sabores Ibéricos rest on one foundation. Help us raise it on Startnext, and come in as a founding member.
Our Goal
€33,000 for One Foundation
With these €33,000 we build all nine gateways of our website, fill our pantry with its first stock from Portugal and Spain in equal measure, and pack your pledge with care. The rest covers Startnext, hosting and the taxes on your pledges. One stone after the other, you raise our Iberian gateway with us.
