HoHoTo - A Model Of Geek Efficiency & Charity

Posted by admin on

The hungry in Toronto are a little better off thanks to #HoHoTo. What's most remarkable about this event isn't just everything they raised, but how quickly they assembled it all together. Here's the recap, but the quick & dirty facts are impressive nonetheless:

All in, we've raised more than $25,000 and people brought about 3,000 lbs of food for our drop off bins at the party. w00t!

Michael O'Connor Clarke helped organize this, the biggest charitable holiday party for Toronto's geek community. He asked for a brief "hello" video from Alexis (whose full-time job is still reddit) to rally the geeks in attendance. Happy to oblige, Alexis also used the opportunity to announce breadpig's donation of US$100 to the Daily Bread Food Bank.

It turns out that was actually CAD$100. The breadpig owes them a few loonies and toonies, but strongly supports the efforts of food banks -- even when bread and pig products are included in the banked food.
