Supporting Aaron Winborn

Posted: - Reading time: 2 minutes

Aaron Winborn is a longtime Drupal contributor and friend to the community. Since his diagnosis with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Aaron has been trying to enjoy time with his family, to remain productive in his work and to live as normal a life as possible.

As time passes, however, the disease has made his life increasingly difficult as it attacks his nervous system. To cope with the mounting costs of treating his condition, Aaron has set up a special needs trust, and you can make a direct donation from his web site.

As a show of support for Aaron and his family, for the rest of this year, my co-authors and I intend to donate all of our royalties from sales of Drupal 7 Module Development to the special needs trust. You can read reviews and order a copy at Amazon.com.

Not only can you get one of the top books on Drupal 7 development, in so doing you can help out one of the people that has helped to make Drupal as powerful as it is.

Aaron Winborn -
Thank you so much Larry. It brings tears to my eyes to know how much support is in the Drupal community.
Sam Tresler -
This is an amazingly generous gesture, and it means a lot to Aaron and family, obviously, but also to his friends. Thank you.

This is a great book. I got loads of ideas from it when running a recent training course - buy this book - you'll be doing yourself a favour and supporting a good cause.
