How is this relevent to HN ? - I understand posting here if a charity cause has some kind of particular interest to startups, etc. But for random charitable stuff - why is this any more worthy than any other charitable activity ?

Why does everything have to be perfectly relevant? We're a group of people, and it's the holidays. To raise a little awareness for a good cause on a weekend night is nice. An article on emacs can take a backseat for a day to one of the other 29 open spots. Why is this more worthy than any toher charitable activity? Because ten of your peers have so far deemed it so.
