State the difference between Peer-to-peer lending and Crowdfunding?

Suggested Answer and Working Notes:

Peer-to-peer lending: In this process a group of people come together and lend money to each other. Peer to peer lending has been there for many years. Many small and ethnic business groups having similar faith or interest generally support each other in their start up endeavors. Crowdfunding: Crowdfunding is the use of small amounts of capital from a large number of individuals to finance a new business initiative. Crowdfunding makes use of the easy accessibility of vast networks of people through social media and crowdfunding websites to bring investors and entrepreneurs together.
