I’m also matching $1k donations to #xoxofest JOIN fundraiser: give.xoxofest.com

Thanks @hondanhon and anonymous matching donors for setting a good example.

The JOIN fundraiser is to help Portland homeless families into permanent housing.

XOXO Festival represents one of the most intentionally community-positive conferences and efforts I’ve seen, strongly and directly confronting difficult & challenging issues both for the conference itself (like diversity & inclusiveness), and for the actual physical community surrounding the conference (local homeless).

The example set by Andy & Andy and the entire XOXOFest crew is amazing in all aspects of how to create, run, and iterate a conference. So much care, kindness, attention to detail, and understanding of broader context.

If you run a conference, look at all the details of how XOXO was done: https://xoxofest.com/

If you participated in XOXO Festival, please consider giving to broaden its positive impact.
