Toronto Mayor David Miller talks HoHoTO 2009

HoHoTO is fundamentally a Toronto event and we're thrilled that Toronto's tech-savvy mayor recognizes what we're trying to do.

HoHoTO is an annual charity holiday party built by and for the Toronto tech, marketing, creative, web design and social media community. A handful of concerned and engaged geeks originally got together to throw a fund-raiser for the Daily Bread Food Bank in December 2008. In the space of about two weeks - from idea to event - we managed to pull together 600+ people for a night of drinking, dancing and insanity - raising $25,000 for the Food Bank. In 2009 we hope to beat that total by a sizeable amount.
