So there is a new alternative funding source called kwikudi.
www.Kwikudi.com is a crowd funding and investment platform that provides people with the opportunity of raising funds for their projects /causes as well as a meeting hub between investors and startups who have an innovative product to introduce to the market.

The platform is going to have, both the default crowd funding section (targeted at non-profit organizations) and an angel investment section.
kwikudi also supports all-or-nothing & keep-any-amount-raised in terms of funding which means even if a project doesn’t meet its targeted amount before the deadline, creators of the project can decide to keep the money already raised.

The website is launching on the 31st of august 2015 and there is another version for equity ownership arrangements between the project owners and registered investors . i think it's going to be a great and revolutionary opportunity for entrepreneurs and Investors alike .

Pre-launch users can signup on www.kwikudi.com for project prep tips and launch invites.
it sounds exciting you guys should check it out.
