New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Who needs holiday help? (Follow up thread)
Ask HN: Who needs holiday help? (Follow up thread)
39 by atdrummond | 3 comments on Hacker News.
Hi all, I wanted to make sure that, ahead of Christmas and New Years, that everyone on HN who needs help (whether that’s affording a Christmas Day dinner or with longer term needs) is able to communicate such. I will be inaccessible from the 27th of December onwards for ten days, so I want to make sure I’m able to fulfill all/the majority of requests prior to then. Thanks to our previous thread ( https://ift.tt/WHSFTR2 ) I was able to distribute nearly $30,000 in support to those who needed it. Unfortunately, this year the requests were not only far more numerous than in year’s past but also much more significant in the amounts asked. Given this, I kindly request that if you’re asking for support, that you do two things: 1. Make sure that the request is necessary. We had some asks for things like children’s college funds for kids who are 1-2 years old. While this is a worthy investment, it is somewhat outside the scope of this particular support programme. 2. Keep your request to $1,000 or less. Last year, the vast majority of funding requests were under $100. This year, a good 25%+ of all requests were over $1000 and we had a decent number (2-3%) over $10,000. While I did my best to finance the larger requests, please remember that I can have a greater impact the larger the number of people I can support. This cap might be overridden in truly extenuating circumstances but I want to encourage people to ask for what they truly need. Finally, please post in this thread once your support request has been filled. I want to avoid the otherwise-inevitable double funding that seems to happen when fulfillments are not noted. Once again, thank you to this wonderful community for all you’ve done for me and others. I truly hope that this is a small way in which I can begin to repay my karmic debt. - alexander EDIT: if you DID not receive a response from me (I got well over 300 emails) please send me a NEW email with your request. please include: 1. total needed 2. name + address 3. how to pay (preferred methods are, in order of preference, cashapp, bank transfer (wise, wire, ACH, etc), PayPal, crypto)
