The web is astoundingly more interesting when folks are building rad shit; and the devs behind the personal, fun, and weird spaces online deserve some coffee money! HGC throws monthly themed contests for folks to win some money, project publicity, and more!

This is rad! I’ve always thought the same thing about some beer money off side projects!

@mrwinson - Hey, thanks! Figured it's my turn to pay it forward, now that I'm a few years into my career. A few posts about HGC really blew up on the web related subreddits a couple weeks ago. Seems there's a lot of developers out there building cool projects that this really resonated with!

Every time I work on a side project, my mind eventually turns back to "wouldn't it be rad if this could earn me some beer money?". That's what Henry Gives Coffee is about. I want to highlight the incredible work that both newer and lesser-known web developers are doing. Hopefully throwing them some money for coffee (or beer) and signal boosting the cool projects they're working on lets them know that what they're contributing to the internet is worthwhile and motivates them to keep building.

Just wanted to add that the submission deadline for April closes at 12 noon this Friday! On top of the $25 awards, I'm personally matching all of the money that's been donated through other avenues and splitting it all between the winners. Can't wait to share all the rad projects (winners and otherwise) with y'all on May 1!
