From my blog on Hackers For Charity.org:
"I’m headed back to Uganda, and this time it’s a family affair! Although we’re calling it a vacation, designed to show our kids the country that captured our hearts, We’ll be plenty busy. We’re hauling over hundreds of pounds of bags, pens and pencils to the students at Rehaboth school, and I’m planning on installing a computer classroom using gear and funds provided by our amazing donors. Click here (or on the image to the left) to check out our blog of the trip. We’ll be checking in every couple of days."

No Tech Hacking Released! |
|
Friday, 15 February 2008 |
I'm proud to announce the release of No Tech Hacking from Syngress Publishing! I'm even more happy to announce that 100% of the proceeds will be going to charity. In fact, each purchase through this Amazon like will feed an African child for one month!
What’s the story with the proceeds?
It’s simple, really. My proceeds from this book are going to AOET (aoet.org), an organization that provides food, education and medical care to children left in the wake of Africa’s HIV/AIDS epidemic. More than an aid organization, AOET aims to disrupt the cycle of poverty and hopelessness in sub-Saharan Africa through empowerment programs and job training, enabling children and adults to be self-sustaining, restoring not only their health but their pride and hope for a brighter future. A single book purchase made through my Amazon associates account (linked from any of my websites, or though http://tiniuri.com/f/Xpc) will generate enough income for AOET to feed a child for an entire month. Other retail purchases (which generate half as much income) will provide either medical services or educational supplies and funding for a single child through a donation pool set aside for those purposes. Why bother? Because I am called to “look after orphans and widows in their distress” (James 1:27), and I know from personal experience how mutually transformative it can be to take that calling seriously. Hamlet was onto something when he wondered, “Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them.” |

As the evening winds down this Christmas day, I'm reminded of the amazing blessings I've had in my life. I've seen my wife miraculously delivered from cancer, my family is in good health, I have been to Uganda with my wife in support of AOET, and I've had the opportunity to work with old friends and make new ones through my writing endeavors and speaking engagements. In addition, I'm absolutely blown away by the amazing growth of http://hackersforcharity.org. So many have taken a bold step in reaching out to help those in need, and I'm honored to play a small part in that.
Thank you so much for your continued support and friendship. It means the world to me. May God richly bless you in the new year.
All the best,
Johnny

Sector.ca was a blast! Not only did I get a chance to throw down the Hacking Hollywood talk (which was so much more fun than I remembered), but I got to hang out with some old friends (hey Mark, Dan, Gadi) but I got to meet some new ones as well. Thanks also to Brian and Nanna and the amazing audience!
