Twestival Home

Oklahoma City has been approved as a Twestival participant. What does this mean? Well, that’s easy… We are going to throw a heck of a party for White Fields, a long term safe house for severely abused boys.

Twestival has blown up in the short time they’ve been around. On 12 February 2009, 200+ international cities hosted a Twestival (Twitter + festival) to bring Twitter communities together to raise money for charity: water. The Twestival raised $250,000+ and brought worldwide public awareness to the global water crisis.

We have the unique opportunity to host Twestival Local. Instead of pooling all the funds towards one global project, this event will happen around the world on the same weekend with all money raised staying local. We’ll benefit from the shared resources, media focus and build friendships with others around the globe doing the same.

Through a one week voting process using UserVoice, White Fields was selected as the nonprofit OKC will support. Check them out, what a great place to be working with!
