Share Our Strength
Jeff has always loved the Web’s power to gather wide-ranging people together to support a goal. He’s one of those dreamers who believes in the power a small group of dedicated people can do to move the world. So it’s probably not a surprise that this attitude led to him becoming the online community geek for Share Our Strength.
When he’s not playing on Twitter or otherwise online, he spends his time volunteering for the causes he’s passionate about: kids and treehugging.
