Tell HN: Effects of the front page on a non-profit
17 points by mooreds 8 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
A few days ago I posted Vets Who Code[0] on HN[1]. It got put into the second chance pool and made the front page yesterday.

Not sure how high it got, but I saw it in the teens.

The founder just shared the impact on his organization in a post on LI[2], but I wanted to share it here.

> We now have 12 new mentor volunteers and received a donation.

Thank you, HN community, for helping out with not just attention and comments (though I've found those extremely valuable in the past) but concrete action.
