Help use the power of Twitter to build a Tanzanian school.
| By Tweetsgiving, Twitter on Nov. 25, 2008 | Tweet |
I love seeing nonprofit projects like Tweetsgiving, a 48-hour effort launched at noon today to help raise funds for a new school in Tanzania. The organizers, Epic Change, say that each $10 donation provides one brick for the school. The goal is to hit $10,000 (or 1,000 bricks) by the end of the 48-hour period.
Join me in donating to this cause, which — if successful — could spark even more people to accomplish good deeds through the powerful networking tools we so often take for granted.
On the Tweetsgiving site, the coordinators ask you to help spread the word by posting a note on Twitter about what you're thankful for this year. "Just tweet from the heart and be sure to include the #TweetsGiving tag and a link to http://tinyurl.com/4thanks." (Here's mine.)
