70M Jobs Launches Crowdfund Campaign

2 pointsby RBBronson1237 lat temu2 comments

70 Million Jobs, the first national, for-profit employment platform for people with criminal records, has just launched a crowdfund campaign (Republic.co/70-Million-Jobs). We're a YC company, have 11 million+ deserving men and women in our community, and have placed thousands in jobs with some of the country's largest employers.

It seems like only yesterday when I announced our launch here on Hacker News. It hasn't been easy--there's a great deal of negative bias felt towards those with records--but attitudes are changing fast. And record low unemployment hasn't hurt either.

We're after double bottom line returns: do massive social good and build a big, successful company. We're finding product market fit--finally, and have great plans for the future. Check out our video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qhh6IVjuMU&t=35s). I'd love your help. Thanks-Richard

Post without link get a penalization here and it's more difficult that they reach the front page. It's generally better to write a blog post, or link to the crowdfunding page and add a comment here.

Also, please don't use URL shorteners like bit.ly.
