Wow, thank you for sharing this. I was not aware of Every.org until today. I checked out the platform just now and am delighted. I love that it is a 501(c)(3) and that it is crystal clear with the promise to remain that way. We desperately needed something like this.
I also love that you will mail checks to organizations even if they do not sign up for electronic disbursement. However I will sign up ZSF now of course :)
- exochrono 5y agoThank you for such a kind comment, and I'm glad we can support your and the foundation's work! I've just shared this with my team, it makes everyone's day when we get feedback like this <3
- wyldfire 5y agoOk sounds like I can go ahead because you will accept from every.org and you do not plan to publish an address to accept donations directly? I'll match other HNers donations of as much as $100 to a total of an additional $1000. Not sure how to substantiate every.org donations but maybe I'll take HNers at their word. EDIT: scoreboard as of 22:20 UTC: $400 out of $1000 to be matched: easymuffin, slimsag, tav, _hl_. Because we need some kind of time bound, I'll leave this matching window open for the next 48 hours, so ~21:20 UTC on Saturday (this is ~5pm US Eastern time IIRC).
- _hl_ 5y agoIs that conditional on donating via some cryptocoin? I'd be up for donating a well-deserved $100 (can't really afford much more right now sadly) but prefer traditional methods.
- AndyKelley 5y agoRyan Worl is offering to match up to 1K as well: https://twitter.com/ryanworl/status/1446216478416584706 https://twitter.com/ryanworl/status/1446216478416584706 slimsag up to 500: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28792172 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28792172 So I think that means if someone donates and then replies to the parent comment noting the amount, that amount will be quadrupled!
- slimsag 5y agoSure, why not: here's my $100 https://i.imgur.com/XwhkmzQ.png https://i.imgur.com/XwhkmzQ.png And just to make it interesting, I'll also match donations up to $100 each to a total of an additional $500 - starting now for the next 48 hours. :)
- tav 5y agoThanks for being so generous! Here's $500 from me: https://imgur.com/gallery/qGBGwXc https://imgur.com/gallery/qGBGwXc
