The best help and support ever if that group (how many members?) can spread
the word, I mean each one of the members can contact different channels or
3rd parties, that would be SUPER great and helpful :)

Thank you so much for spreading the word :D

We are trying to wipe darkness and replace it with Light. We are trying to
explain to the Windows World HOW GOOD Linux is :)
Our mission is noble. I know for sure we will do it.

Many thanks!
