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
