Submission + - Nerd aid for East Afrika - give your nerdy amount (rodekors.no)
Erlend Schei who started the trend writes this:
"nerd Aid
I work in IT / media. I have good advice and good network. I am seldom afraid or hungry, and are largely spared from the pain of the world.
The last time I'm reminded of how far my life is from others. Heart torn when I see photographs of famine in Africa.
My small contribution is money to the Red Cross. My hope is that I can pull with me some of my friends, acquaintances, colleagues and others with in my network.
I hope that you will be helping, often by giving the money if you can, but not least by spreading the word.
Please hashtag'en # nerdaid and link j.mp/nerdaid — maybe we can create a small "thing" that makes a difference!
Can we get 5000 throughout our network to provide 200 kroner, we have managed a million. Whatever saves every krone children from dying."
