AWS rebooted our instances yesterday and the main instance our nonprofit runs on is no longer working, so we need help somewhat urgently. We have a part-time web dev who averages about 3-4 hours of work per week who knows some AWS, but not a lot. AWS is saying that the instance is not passing 1 of 2 status checks, and the dev hasn't been able to SSH into it.
He tried creating a new instance using the back-up AMI (we subscribe to the AWS backup service), but it also fails the status check and can't be reached via SSH. He says he would need to create a new machine from scratch and configure it etc and would take him about 30 hours to do, but we can't afford 30 hours of his time.
So we could really use help. It probably would take a person experienced at AWS less time to do, but it still might take perhaps 15 to 20 hours. Please let me know when you could start on it, and roughly how many hours you can put into it during the upcoming 2-4 days. I can easily give you full access to our AWS account and I can be available via phone or email.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to bring the highest quality news from hundreds of sources across the Internet to the public in one place on a daily basis.
Description
We are a 21st-century news site bringing the public top quality stories, columns, editorials, photos, videos, audio, live chats and more. We are an IRS-approved 501(c)3 charitable nonprofit organization. Our site aims to be an important contributor in solving the problems facing our country and world by becoming the central resource on the Internet for intelligent, factual and accurate reporting. Whereas almost all publications rely on a small under-trained staff to produce a small number of stories of inconsistent quality, The DailySource chooses from all stories on the Internet. We present the public with high caliber information, news and analysis that has been chosen from over a thousand publications and is centralized in one site. The information people read is at the heart of improving the world. The site is designed to give the public the information they need to make solid decisions about what policies to support, to become more aware of key trends affecting the world, to find spiritual, recreational and cultural opportunities for themselves, to choose how to best spend their money, to learn about beneficial health news and more. The Internet is fast becoming the leading place for people to get their news. Come be on the cutting edge of it with us.
