Tour de Nerdfighting

Sometimes things just come to together. I came home to visit my family and fix some broken equipment - but I ended up being able to do some awesome things. I got to meet Hank and John Green and the Nerdfighter community for the first time. And together we'll be raising money for Save the Children USA.

The money raised goes to help pay for what you guys vote on from my Challenge Poverty video. Hopefully this means I might be able to do more than I had originally budgeted for. You guys get to vote on what I do (just leave a comment or video response on my previous video) and the money raised during the Tour de Nerdfighting goes straight to Save the Children (no PayPal fees and I don't have to touch a dime!).

Here are the last three stops where you can donate to Save the Children to help fund Challenge Poverty.

November 10th - Charlottesville, VA
November 11th - Lancaster, PA
November 12th - Westport, CT (Home of Save the Children!)

Money has already been raised for Save the Children (to fund Challenge Poverty) at the following stops on the Tour de Nerdfighting:

November 2nd - Plano, TX
November 2nd - Oklahoma City, OK
November 3rd - St. Louis, MO
November 4th - Greenwood, IN
November 5th - Louisville, KY
November 6th - Knoxville, TN
November 7th - Gadsen, AL
November 9th - Newport News, VA

Thanks to all the Nerdfighters who donated! Most of us are just poor students - but it really does seem like the generosity of Nerdfigthers is almost endless.

[UnculturedProject]

@MrMaximusi You can try. But we're unionized now.

im a little confused at the opening game thing

[UnculturedProject]

Where everyone was in a circle? It's like you go around a circle while everyone sings a song - and than you pick someone to switch places with and than that person goes around in the circle. It's more of a song than a game I s'pose..

[LilMissDumbass]

Wow. I loved you're speech, it's definitely true. John's writing totally captures you're attention. *subscribes*

[UnculturedProject]

Thanks for subscribing! <3

This is kind of embarrassing, but whenever I read Paper Towns (which I'm still reading because I am slow) I feel as if I know the writer personally, even though I don't. I just know more about him than any other famous writer out there.

@PiphALaMode I'm going back and watching old videos. I saw your comment, if you are still a nerdfighter you should go to Vidcon! It will be the most fun you ever had and sorry you missed the day in the video, it was a great time too.  But go to Vidcon!

[shancateyes]

[PiphALaMode]

[Ayshafr]

[DarkPhoneixZ]

very cool

[treehugger842]

ya i used to do it all the time in cheerleading

[MonisticWonder]

Yeah, I've seen a handful of guys, but we seem to be the minority in Nerd Fighteria. Given, John writes YA fiction from the PoV of a female character, but that shouldn't prevent guys from enjoying them, and being active in the community.
