Impact

What Golden Hint has done so far

Live numbers from the Exchange, mentoring, peer circles, events and credit pools. Golden Hint is new, so these start small; every figure is real, counted straight from our records.

Updated Oct 18, 2026, 3:12 AM UTC; refreshed at most once an hour.

Membership opened in October 2026. No exchanges have been completed yet, so most of these numbers are zero. We'd rather show you a real zero than an invented number.

Where member organizations are

How we count

  • Only aggregates. No organization or person is named or identifiable here. States with fewer than five verified organizations, and organizations that haven't given a state, are grouped as "Other".
  • Verified organizations are those our staff have checked (charities against the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search) and that aren't suspended.
  • Hours of help adds up completed exchanges (one credit is one hour of help, as agreed by both sides), mentoring sessions the mentee confirmed, and completed workshops (each counted up to eight hours).
  • Credits moved counts credits that went from one organization to another: completed exchanges, gifts, and grants from funder and company pools. Welcome grants and earnings from the community pool aren't included. Credits have no cash value.
  • By area counts exchanges made from a listing, under the listing's area; exchanges proposed directly between two organizations have no area and are counted only in the totals.
  • Mentorships counts those accepted (active or completed); peer circles counts circles forming or active; workshops held counts completed events.
  • We don't estimate a dollar value. When we have a year of data, we'll publish an annual report that also covers what didn't work.
