We've been considering applying for the W24 batch, specifically for our nonprofit (Manifold for Charity, aka Manifund). If we apply, will we get accepted?

Reasons we'd like to participate:

• Everyone says the network is great; in our case we'd specifically like to meet potential tech-y donors

• Would be nice to try the heads-down sprint thing

• Branding, obv

• It's been a longtime dream of Austin's

• They apparently give $100k grants to nonprofits, free money is nice

Why we might get accepted:

• idk I think "equity for nonprofits" should be a pretty compelling pitch for YC partners

• Some history of EA-ish charities going through YC: 80k, CEA, Our World in Data

• PG liked Noora Health's impact cert, and just tweeted a Manifold market!

Why we might not:

• Apparently acceptance rate among nonprofits is super low; my friend Shawn says there's something like 1-2 nonprofits among current batch of 60 (offhand, don't quote him/me on this)

• Manifold did get rejected when we applied in Dec 2021 (though, that was before we'd shipped our MVP!)

This market is conditional on us applying; resolves N/A if we decide not to apply.
