My 2 cents: I think you will have a lot of difficulty getting Raptor to do the crowdfunding on their website, seeing as they don't think the project is viable and they weren't willing to provide a firm quote. Although I guess there's no harm in asking.

Most crowdfunding sites that I've seen don't charge anything if the target isn't met, but that might depend on the terms of the site you choose.

On advice from people in his organization Stallman answered, fsf will endorse no crowd funding
regarding a libre software microatx raptor mainboard and cpu. Because such mainboard is
nothing special. That is an odd reason considering, there is no new libre software computer
for sale, which equals an intel duo core cpu in performance and costs below 1000usd.

I stop further steps and have informed raptor so.

Did you ask the FSF what they recommend as a currently-existing alternative?

No. The only answer fsf can have are the fsf certified computers.
