"Free the Commons" is a nice, short, relevant slogan. It's a call-to-action.
But freeing in what sense? What commons? What are "the commons"? And
technically, "commons" are rivalrous shared resources, not actually the
public goods which are technically what we're working with.

What about dropping "fund"? "Crowdmatching for public goods"
