I enjoy editing community Internet directories, educational pages, The GlobalPeace.Net Project and several other non-profit or socially conscience publishing projects in my spare ;^) time.

I also serve as a Internet consultant and/or project manager for hundreds of clients and the domains hosted on our servers, and also several domains which are hosted on other servers.

During my career which is now almost in it's second decade, I've had opportunities to help in some capacity with a lot of non-profit or socially conscience projects with their Internet solutions, a few of which include:

    * Child Search
    * The National Association of the Physically handicapped
    * Kent State May 4th 1970 (May4.org and AlanCanfora.com)
    * UNJobs.org
    * Charity Barter Banc
    * Katrina Housing Foundation (KatrinaHousingFoundation.Org)
    * The Akron Digital Academy (the remote learning program for the Akron, Ohio public school system)
    * The Cleveland Clinic (MRI transmission)
    * A rare disease medical research database
    * Olympic Gold Medalist Butch Reynolds Care for Kids Foundation (butchreynolds.com)
    * A World of Difference (Cambodia World Family Sponsor (a-difference.org)
      and others listed on-line.

The company I founded config.com also provides Internet access throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico using multiple network providers serving over 15,000 cities.

Jan 2008 Update: config.com Internet services has continued to evolve with technology changes. As the dial-up market migrated toward cable, DSL, and broadband wireless, config has continued to conduct growth with e-commerce web site projects. In the process of figuring out how to market Nationally, we found ourselves involved in the barter trade industry. Due to our success from the start, we established The Internet Barter Exchange and started focusing on services we excelled in and found a demand for. What I always refered to as Electronic markeing became an industry of itself now known as Search Engine Optimization or the acronym SEO. By the time 2008 came along, we've lost a little over 50% of our dial-up Internet subscriber base, but found our selves getting calls Worldwide for SEO, web hosting, and other consulting opportunities. I joke about having become "barter rich" because of the revenue drop of our more profitable dial subscribers, but the fact is, we are working on some very interesting stuff almost all the time and keep moving forward gradually helping others "do good", one client or commercial referal at a time.
