If you see DunkTank co-founder Blake Jennelle walking around Center City with a cowboy hat, cowboy boots and a fake beard, rest assured he hasn’t gone completely crazy.

Jennelle along with co-founder Chap Ambrose are subjecting themselves to public humiliation in order to raise money for their favorite charities using DunkTank, an expiramental new fundraising website launching this week that the two coded over a weekend.

The idea is to make fundraising fun by having users offer to perform dares in return from donations from strangers. Users will be able to post a profile, the charity they hope to raise money for and what that money will be used for. Visitors can then donate money to see the dare carried out, hopefully though a posted video or photos and comment why they donated.
