Some of the Simplist team rocked (Nick is already signed up for a half ironman!) the triathlon...but much more importantly we raised more than $30,000 as a part of the Camp Interactive fundraising team!

So then we threw a party. A #whiskeyTriday (special edition of #whiskeyFriday) that some of our favorite people attended! And then after a bunch of tasty drinks sponsored by our host Building on Bond, the next day I was feeling myself (and a distinct need for water).

So I went full rapper:

And finally, even our puppy wanted in on the action and threw down the gauntlet: Next year he intends not just to coach me through the triathlon season...he intends to compete and raise money for Camp Interactive.

Thanks Camp Interactive for making a difference and giving us a chance to help more kids see that they too are builders.

If you're curious how me and Nick raised all of our money so quickly, drop me a line (hint: Simplist special targeting features all the way). if you're curious why Biscuit is so damn cute, I have no idea.

You like kids? You like tech? Well then what you waitin' for?

Hey, Team Interactive is crushing our raise for Camp Interactive (a program to get more kids of color into technology). And I'm actually almost ready for this triathlon. So let's finish strong! Every $1500 puts a kid through ENTIRE program. So we decided to shoot for 150% of our original goal.

Here are reasons you should stop and take 30 seconds to support me dragging my butt across the finish line to get more kids in tech:

1. The odds of me winning the RACE are small...like less than zero.

​

2. BUT the odds of us together making more kids feel capable of solving their own problems are HIGH. Which is kind of like winning.

​

3. So, take 30 seconds to be more awesome and help me help more kids see just how incredible they are and will be as builders and definers of our future. 

​

See, that's easy right?

Thank you for the support and see you at the finish line!

FAQ:

Who am I again?

I'm the Chief Empathy Officer of Simplist

Build your team. Build your business.

Why am I doing this?

There is not enough diversity in tech. Period. As a black kid from Brooklyn who became a tech founder I see this everyday. I was lucky enough to have educational opportunities and the support of a "village" and I gotta pay if forward.

Why else am I doing this?

Because diversity breeds unique perspective and innovation. Kids who today might only see problems can tomorrow see and build unique soutions only THEY can think of.

FrED fans, I need help. In about three weeks, I will run the New York City Marathon to support CampInteractive, an organization that "empowers inner-city youth through the inspiration of the outdoors and the creative power of technology." It gets these kids critical time on the mountains, the trail (see above!), the beach, and also in front of computers. They learn to write their own code and produce video. CI's alumni are doing amazing things thanks in part to the experiences they have with CI. I have until November 2 to raise $3,000 for this amazing charity, and your donation is critical to help us all achieve this goal. Don't do it for me. Do it for these awesome teenagers who make CampInteractive so successful. Donate here, share this post, and thank you!!
