I've said it before, but I'll say it again: I've seen many comments in the past few years that have thanked everyone who donated, because the commenter didn't have the disposable income to donate. But I, for one, want to thank every single nerdfighter who gave their time and attention to advocacy and meme-making on Twitter for the Danaher and J&J campaigns. Right now, the only way I can contribute to Nerdfighteria is financially, and I'm so grateful for all of you who did this community so proud and repped it so well. This is truly a unique group of humans ❤ DFTBA

The maternal health center is fully supported? It’s so incredible that a massive project has set sail and we can do more things

hearing Hank say 'if you wanna be a nerdfighter, you are a nerdfigher' in 2024 ALMOST MADE ME CRY I've been in this shit for a loooooong time y'all.

Hey, I made that "Hank and John's Raxcellent Adventure" image at 6:09! The P4A may seem expensive, but making dumb meme art is free. I'm glad to be part of this.

om a side note, the warehouse crew has always been very kind to me during a decade of supporting the p4a, with address changes, shipping issues etc. shout out to them, the backend heroes

As a TB survivor from Africa, I just about burst into tears watching this ❤ the work you guys have done to improve TB detection & treatment has made me not scared for the future 🤗 thank you!

Boy, is this appreciated. We just had over a $1000 of unexpected expenses in the last week. When my husband reminded me it's time for P4A, my heart fell. But we can give you our attention.

It’s the best time of the year, HAPPY P4A nerdfighteria! How exciting it is to decrease world suck.

“Being grateful is more productive than feeling hopeless” I like this a lot

Just the reminder of "if you wanna be a Nerdfighter, you are one" and how welcoming, open, and generous this community has always been has just won the record for "earliest time I've cried during a P4A (-30 min) and I've been watching and participating since the 2011 P4A.

To any Nerdfighters who feel bad because you aren't in a position to contribute to the P4A or other efforts financially, only with your time and attention, please know that time and attention really matter too. You're basically balancing me out, because I'm in the opposite position; I can help financially, but don't always have the cycles to put as much time and attention into it as I'd like, and I sometimes feel bad that I'm just throwing a little money at it instead of helping more directly. But the truth is, decreasing world suck takes money *_and_* time/effort, and anything you can do to make the world less sucky is awesome! I think the only real "cost" of being a Nerdfighter, if you want to think of it that way, is to not be resigned to just accepting world suck, and don't cynically give up hope on decreasing it. ☺

"That project is now pretty well supported" probably one of the craziest and most wonderful sentences i've heard in a while! I knew it was going well but not THAT well. Hope to see another "on the ground" update video some time :)

The fact that we managed to actually finish a project and support the next one made me actually tear up. This really feels like we're making a difference.

The maternal center of excellence project is what got me pulled deeper into this community as I learned about it newly post partum with my first kiddo 5 years ago. Hearing that it is fully funded now has sent CHILLS down my spine as I think of all the mothers who will be impacted, who will be helped, who will LIVE. Crying tears of joy!

I’m working in my first proper post college job this year and it means I get to donate for the first time after watching for so many years 🎉

The Daneher, and J&J wins, will forever be something I am so proud of! Like those were a huge community win, but I helped!!!

Wow, I love your P4A twinkly sign!! Happy P4A weekend, nerds! 💚

This video hits for me! ❤ As a millennial, who has stretched their budget own a minute percentage of a house, (and as a former southern baptist) I expect this to be a guilt video. I am consistently amazed at the generosity of you and your brother. I love you guys. Please continue to bless humanity with your voices for change! ❤❤❤

My body is SO READY. Of course the week I actually have a reason to finish work early on Friday is the ONE WEEK the client moves our weekly meeting to 5pm Friday 🤣

I would love to see your spreadsheet. Not what you put into the spreadsheet, I recognize that's personal, but I would love to see what the grading criteria was.

I just really appreciate that this video confirmed "Look at hanks face" was not in face a weird fever dream. Despite looking up the video regularly, it hasnt felt as real as you acknowledging it. So thank you for that 😂

Quick correction to the description, 12AM is midnight, 12PM is noon. P4A begins at noon not midnight!

Hank would have a “is it goofy” category. And that is part of what makes him awesome.

Congratulations!!! $900,000 is awesome.

My hubby and I were in a place where we could support the matching fund this year, and I am so happy that so many other people helped too. Decreasing world suck is so cool!!!

i learned (or maybe fully realized?) from this video that this year's P4A *won't* be going to Sierra Leone because THEY NO LONGER NEED IT and that's so incredibly moving to me, what an amazing community and I'm grateful to be a nerdfighter

Happy P4A!!!!!!!

We are so lucky to have this community and the P4A. Thank you, vlogbrothers and nerdfighters, for what we get to build together. Let's do this thing!

As someone without disposable income, I appreciated your words so much. Thank you for thinking it and saying it. 🧡

Oh my GOD THANK YOU for featuring the silly music video I made for Look At Hank's Face!!! I had SO MUCH FUN combing through the stream from that night for footage and putting that together! Here's to another awesome P4A!

Thank you for listening/caring about this conversation about people feeling left our because of money!

Happy P4A everyone!! It's so fun to be a part of this. One year I started the hashtag trend of #provehankwrong during a stream segment involving the promise of a hottub. The silliness, the energy, the community... I love it 🙂

I have to work 2 overtime shifts this weekend, so I cannot be as present as I usually like, but I'm super freaking excited that it's P4A again! This is always one of my favorite things to be a part of each year! DFTBA! 💜

I need this right now. I'm between jobs right now and feel stuck, but seeing so many people come together to have fun and help others does my heart good. DFTBA everyone!

Thank you Hank. Every year, I wish I could donate to the P4A. I’m a medical student, so we really don’t a ton of money to throw around. I’ve been around for a decade(?!) and I look forward to the day when I can donate. Love you guys ❤

The livestream hasn't even started and I'm already crying. 💖

I just have to say thank you for supporting and mentioning Gaza. It's nice to see that crisis treated as "yes, of course this is a crisis and the people there need support, which we will of course give." It's just seen so often as a partisan political issue instead of an intensely HUMAN issue and it's so heartening to have it treated as such with someone with a "platform". Thank you all for all the work you do.

EXTREMELY excited for the P4A! But also, now I need a full breakdown on Hank's activity-prioritization-scoring spreadsheet system.

I think there's a ripple effect too. Stuff has never lined up well with P4A for me, but being the "you" addressed in videos like this was what made it come home to me that I was someone people thought was ABLE to donate and volunteer and so on when I was like 14. It's a silly thing to have to have put together for you, but watching P4A stuff and having watched it for a decade is a big factor in pushing me to throw my 5 bucks in when other, unrelated donation drives cross my path. It's easy to feel like money doesn't count, because it's more ephemeral than showing up, putting stuff together, donating cans, but money is more useful than many of the things that are culturally assigned as "real" philanthropy! I couldn't go to any protests in 2020, but I did donate what I could to bail funds instead of drowning in the powerless misery of feeling unable to help, and the way donations are talked about in Nerdfighteria was a big factor in that.

What a great start! Happy P4A🎉

🎉❤ Thank you to everyone involved!!! ❤🎉

I really apreciate you saying you're still part of this community when you can't donate. I am in a strange financial year but you saying that makes me feel less shitty about that, and want to budget for it once the tides hae turned.

I am so thankful for this community. Been here over 10 years and have always lived paycheck to paycheck but every year I look forward to being able to contribute in some small way. This year, I'm also gifting a Crabulo subscription for my girlfriend and it's just... nice. I love this community. If you're reading this, I hope you do something for you today-get some rest, have grace for yourself, and hang in there. You've got this.

I love how much joy P4A brings to you both and to our community...and the world!

Happy P4A!!! It’s my favorite time of year because I love coming together as a community and creating shared joy!!! I love my Nerdfighters friends!

Woohoo, P4A is the best time of year!!! 🙌🙌🙌

My heart is full and I am so excited. Thank you for being a human beacon of hope!

Happy P4A - best weekend of the year every year!

I love seeing how the P4A, its audience and donation projects has evolved each year - love this time of year💕💕

Thank you so much Hank for this video because I'm going through a financially rough time and this is the first time in the last few years that I cannot donate and was feeling bad about It. So thanks

It is a dangerous day to get paid lol I got paid yesterday but have been budgeting for the past few months!

All the love to everyone here! Happy P4A!!!!

Someday, it will work out that I can watch more of the livestream (had to work yesterday and already had plans after work), but I just wanted to thank everyone for this community. Those times when I could dip in were encouraging. The comments on this video are encouraging (enough that I teared up a few times). Thanks, and keep being awesome!

P4A is always such a great time, there's such joy in being part of a community who just come together to celebrate doing fun and ridiculous things together in support of a good cause. 💜 Just being part of it all is awesome, and being able to contribute in any way (donating, sharing links, sharing memes) is just the cherry on top. I also like learning about the work being done by different charities and bookmarking some of their websites to try and support later, when I can. There are so many people doing wonderful things to help others in this world, and it's nice to be reminded of that, and to feel like I'm contributing to supporting their efforts in my own small way.

This was my first p4a since I became a nerdfighter last april. I just want to say that it was the most fun i’ve had in a very long time. The community is so supportive and the p4a lore was so fun to keep up with. Hopefully some year in the future I will be able to donate. Thank you for making my weekend awesome!

We’re here because we’re here because it’s P4A time!! It is the most wonderful time of the year, I’m so grateful I get to do it with y’all ❤

Happy P4A! The best time of year! And the closest to IRL community-feeling I have have ever found on the internet ♥♥♥

Donated. thanks for everything you all do.

This is a topic that has been brought up a lot on the nerdfighter subreddit recently, and it’s really cool to see that Hank is listening to and thinking about that input.

Excited for this year's P4A! See you there

Happy PFA!! I love being part of this community and knowing my money is going to women in Sierra Leone. ❤

I have been a nerd fighter for about 12 years (give or take). Some of those years I have been able to contribute financially and others I have done my best to contribute in other ways. I have ALWAYS felt loved and I ALWAYS feel like this comunity has remembered to be awesome! Thank you everyone who is here for it.

SUCH a great day today ♥️ happy P4A!!! My favorite perk I have ever gotten is still the Alaska For Looking book that’s looking for Alaska but in alphabetical order

Thanks for this, I wasn’t able to donate this year due to my finances but I was part of the contacting Danaher and have been more involved in the Reddit/nerdfighter community than ever before, which is really nice ❤

I love the twinkly lights on the sign!

Hank, it gave me big wonderful feels to hear that P4A is the by far #1 thing that you want to do in life (spreadsheets don't lie!). It's my #1 too and I look forward SO MUCH to joining our awesome community to watch, learn, laugh, and donate responsibly to help decrease world suck.

My Mum's Hair is Growing Up After Her Chemo and Radio Again! Everything I see your hair, I show it to Mum to show how fast and beautifully hair grows back!❤ also, please support cancer vaccines! ❤

Please make a calendar that includes all of the nerd fighter events/holidays; P4A, pizzamas, and esther day!

Thanks so much for addressing this issue! Love you guys. ♥️ DFTBA!

There are years i’ve contributed, and years i have not. I look forward to being able to donate again. :)

I didn't realize it was this weekend!

Woooo I'm so exited! This is my first P4A!

The P4A is my silver lining on what is currently day 4 of being at home with the flu. It's a hopeful time, I can't wait to see everyone over at the livestream!

This was the first year I was able to donate!! And the first perk that drew me in was the clowncast with you and Payton hehe

i lost my job last week and i’m really sad i can’t donate this year, but i’ve donated in years past. cheering nerdfighteria on as always

Happy P4A 2O24! February is always a harder time for me financially than Decembers were, so thanks for the reminder!

I've been a nerdfighter for the past few years, but apparently I really needed this reminder that it doesn't cost any money to be a nerdfighter, thank you Hank 🖖💚🖖

In a way just watching the videos you two make is supporting the charitable causes we support because it pushes them to the algorithm more, thus reaching more potential members and donors :) so literally every little thing helps, even if you can't donate money!

I'm finally in a financial spot where I can donate to the project for awesome and I'm so excited to be able to

Thank you for this video. I was feeling down because I can't participate financially this year. I'll still be watching live tho ❤

Loved this video!

Happy P4A! Listening to wonderful, energetic banter between amazing brothers whilst on Day 2 of a head cold is, I realized, sorta painful … so I’ll be curled up on the couch hoping to fall back to sleep. Y’all have a blast & I’ll check back tomorrow if I can. DFTBA! ❤️🤧😷😴❤️

Thank you for this :)

I’m glad we are supporting John’s hobby of signing his name over and over again.

Happy P4A, Nerdfighteria! Can't wait for the Raxxellenr adventure & to meet this year's mascot 😋

It's 5:10 central on Friday and we're already up to almost $500k on tiltify. Over a million all together. I love our community, how generous people are with their time, money, voices... Warm fuzzies

This is my favorite Vlogbrothers video in a while. That's a high bar - but I love this sentiment!

I haven't always felt welcomed by this community. But I've always felt welcomed by hank and john. And I do appreciate it.

Happy P4A everyone!!! 🖤

it's a dangerous day to get your yearly bonus 😬. Awesome news to learn that the Center for maternal health excellence, is now well enough supported you can direct money to other things, that's an incredible success. Congrats to everyone involved.

Wildly, I got teary-eyed hearing "if you wanna be a nerdfighter, you're a nerdfighter" again. Some things never change. Love you guys and P4A!

Thank you for encouraging everyone to make sound financial decisions!

Happy P4A everyone!!!

Happy P4A Everyone!

Can we take a moment to appreciate Hank’s absolutely gorgeous elevator speech for the unique and beautiful ways that Save the Children and PIH each serve the world? That was so well done! Wow!

I am so happy to be a part of this community! From online activism, to memes, to this ridiculous livestream. Frankly, it's Awesome. Let's go P4A! 💚 P.S. Okay, that sign is Awesome!

Genuinely inspirational

Happy P4A everybody!!!

Hank Green, you giant goofball, you give me joy! You have for a long time, and your brother is okay too.

This made me cry. Hearing that the community has raised enough that the Maternal Health center is funded is so incredible. That we are now focusing on TB is incredible. I love this community so much.
