Hello Jason,

We have an extensive, worldwide Ambassador program whose members
spread free software, and promote Fedora. We'd love to have your help
as well -- we have several people in New Jersey and Pennsylvania that
can help you get you started.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/CountryList#Northern_America

If you look on that list, you'll see entries for people around the USA
including your region, and I encourage you to email the people in your
region in a group. One or more of them should be able to reach out to
you, and may even be able to come speak to your group in person. I'm
sending a copy of this email to our fedora-ambassadors-list as well.

I encourage you to look at the wiki page for the Ambassadors program
to see whether you'd like to become part of our vibrant and rapidly
growing Fedora community:
