Going Global: TweetsGiving 2009

This TweetsGiving post is by Avi Kaplan, Global Community and Events Director for Epic Change.

TweetsGiving 2009 is only 20 days away and we are so excited! Things are shaping up great and the first event tickets have already been sold! There are a lot of really great folks organizing gratitude parties and we’d love your help too.

It’s not to late to organize an event in your city. You can learn more about organizing a gratitude party, in your community, check out some of the gratitude party ideas we’ve shared, or view our event checklist. To start organizing your party just complete our event organizer form and we’ll get you set up.

There are other ways to be involved too of course. If you’d like to organize a more intimate gathering with friends and family, consider throwing a gratitude house party. :)

So far there are events planned in…

Cities

Campuses

You can find ticketing and information for each of these events by clicking the city name above or within the Epic Change online Community which you can register to join here.

We Need Your Help!

We’re excited with our progress so far, but there are many places we would still love to see gratitude parties organized. Below is a list of some major cities around the world. Organizing for TweetsGiving is a fun and meaningful way to support a worthy cause. If you know people in these places (or somewhere else) we need your help reaching out to them! With your help we can make TweetsGiving 2009 the largest day of gratitude the world has ever known. So please phone, email, and tweet a friendly nudge about this to your friends and contacts.
