It took a few months, but our experiment of upcycling our unused tokens into fundraising keepsakes finally paid off! It accomplished a whole lot of win in one fell swoop:
- Creating a physical commemoration of the awesomeness that has been the NYC JavaScript community over the past two years.
- Raising $2,625 for [ScriptEd][], a NYC-based organization that does amazing work in the local tech community.
- Increasing BrooklynJS ticket availability through reserved ticket bundling.
- Letting me work on a creative physical project with my pals @brianloveswords, @kosamari, and @philduffy.
- Taking bags and bags of unused tokens out of my tiny Brooklyn walkup closets.
