Hurts my eyes. You should make copy smaller and use better margins.

What a way to show a lack of respect and kudos to a group doing good for everyone. Your copy hurts many things JohnWheeler...

you've listed some skills that you can bring to bear to a problem, but what are example problems you're trying to solve? i'd think that with most small businesses closed, they'd be hard to help right now for instance.

it'd probably help to list some of the kinds of projects you imagine so that folks who need help/want to give help can decide to do so (or not).

for instance, could you use product, project, or general management help? legal skills? do you want to work with government agencies? medical ones? non-profits? how about tenant's rights organizations? etc.

Seems exploitative - Angelinos aren't hurting for work right now, they're hurting for a paycheck. I'd like to see some kind of compensation model.
