Thank you! I was excited when we pulled that number, too - I lived in Ghana for a while. Great country and great people.

Most of our funders don't receive anything in return. They just want to help Watsi scale. That said, many of them serve as informal advisors to us.

So far, we've asked two of our funders to sit on our board (alongside Premal Shah of Kiva): Paul Graham, and Christy Chin of Draper Richards Kaplan Foundation.

Yes, we have plans to open source our software in the future. Stay tuned!

Wow, thank you! It took less than 90 minutes for all 1,000 of Segment's gift cards to be claimed.

You can still buy a gift card here: https://watsi.org/gift-cards. They're a holiday gift that's perfect for everyone and 100% of every gift card funds life-changing healthcare.

We want to thank the team at Segment for making such a generous donation to Watsi patients.

Segment not only buys Watsi gift cards for each of their new employees, but they donate their product (which we love) to Watsi so we can fund healthcare for more patients using the best tools available.

They are amazing :)
