We'd all noticed the dearth of social news sites with a focus on nonprofit news -- which is particularly surprising given how many organizations like Kiva and DonorsChoose have so masterfully used the Internet to reinvent how nonprofits can work. The more people interested in this sector who become aware of the [free] technology at their disposal, the better.
Enter IdealistNews.com, a resource for all things nonprofit. We repainted things to keep Idealist's look and feel, but for my fellow hardcore redditors, you can still subscribe to it as nonprofit.reddit.
Last month we saw nearly 5 million unique visitors to reddit, many of whom participated in our recent FEEDaNEED project, volunteering their talents to nonprofits that needed them. We've already seen what good can come from our community (not to mention actually saving the world) and with so many businesses like AIG showing us just how hip "nonprofit" is, there's a lot of promise for this new reddit.
