It Takes An Army

Thanks to everyone who helped put on the amazing concert last night. Ken Voita and Lindsay Ferguson put on a spectacular show, and wowed both the in person and online audiences!

Special thanks goes to Adrian Meissner from Boundless, who drove TWO HOURS to come and talk to all of us about the incredible work they do.

Also many, many thanks to Allan and Yvonne Isfan for providing their beautiful home for the show, to Cheryl Gain of Ottawa Tonite for organizing everything, to Bob LeDrew for providing Ottawa’s most comfortable House Concert chairs and for his ongoing support, to Jamie Calder for providing a big long ethernet cable for the live stream, to 12for12k’ers Jon Aston and Richard Marti for spreading the word.

And, between yesterday afternoon and today, we raised about $200 for Boundless and introduced a bunch of new people to the good work of Boundless and 12for12k. Yay!

It takes an army of people to make events like this happen, and I’m grateful to everyone who took the time to listen and share.

Here’s the recording of the show….sorry, the first part got cut off due to UStream issues….
