Don Wilson ~ Kinkboy Don
Don has been around the Atlanta leather community on & off for over 20 years. His first interaction with anything to do with the scene was going to a dungeon party as a very naive uneducated boy. He’s learned a lot since then. He was away from the community for over 10 years after he became legally blind. Don became involved with the community again in late 2017 when he pledged the Panther L/L club. He became a full member in 2018 and served as Sargent-atArms until the club disbanded. Don volunteered with the Leather Heart Foundation where he was Case Services Director for a short time up until the pandemic paused the Foundation’s services.

Don has done some type of volunteer work most of his life. He has served as President, Secretary, Treasurer, Sargent-at-Arms, & Member-at-Large on various Boards. His most exciting volunteer experience was during the 1996 Olympics where he volunteered in the Olympic Village for almost two months. He got to see the Clinton & Gore family and briefly met Arnold & Bruce.

Don’s background is in Computer Information Systems and website design. He has worked with non profit organizations to establish or update their website. After becoming legally blind he learned about website accessibility & design. He has consulted on website accessibility to several organizations.

Don looks to put his computer skills to work for LHPF and help with website design & Information Technology.
