A comment on Universal Fund.

I'm a little confused. For many months now, Watsi has charged my card each month for the amount I specified whenever I first signed up. Each month, I get an email explaining which patient my recurring donation was directed to that month.

What is different about the Universal Fund? Is this just the formal announcement of what was already in place? Also, will Teespring be matching the recurring donations that were already in place before this announcement? Thanks!

The Universal Fund is a rebrand/official launch of monthly donations. Your next month's donation will be automatically matched because you were one of the first thousand to join (thanks for being a Universal Fund OG!).

You'll get an email about this tomorrow morning (we didn't intend to launch today, but it got out on HN a little early :)

Sorry for any confusion!
