I wonder if anyone else out there has given this method a serious attempt?

Grassroots fundraising I guess... with a revitalization / socio-economic backdrop...
the only example of grassroots fundraising for big expensive sculpture that I know of is the statue of liberty where I think 400,000 french school kids gave a buck to fund the gift from the french to the states.
Any thoughts?
