Birthday Tweet-a-thon a Success

I just turned another year older and spent the day raising over $500 in support of Eye Care 4 Kids in partnership with http://www.12for12k.org/. It warmed my heart to see the community support as 25 people donated between $5 and $50 each to arrive at the daily total. All of this money was raised through communication using Twitter. If you’ve had any questions about the power of social media, think again. It is truly a powerful communication tool which gives you the ability to send short messages to a global audience in seconds.

As announced throughout the Tweet-a-thon, each person who donated money to the cause received one raffle ticket for every $12 donated. Then, numbers were assigned to each person based on the number of tickets received and winners were chosen by random selection using http://www.random.org/.
