Kolkata Twestival March 25, 2010

Would like to inform all that Kolkata Twestival - a Charity event is being held on 25th March.

Twestival™ (or Twitter Festival) uses social media for social good. Meaning its uses the power of @twitter community to do good via raising funds for charity. Twestival is a global organization which holds various charity events city-wise all over the world.

All of the local events are organized 100% by volunteers and 100% of all ticket sales and donations go direct to projects. So here in Kolkata Twestival edition, we are doing the same.

On 12 February 2009, the First Twestival Global was held in 202 international cities to support @charitywater, who are doing incredible work to help the almost 1 billion or 1 in 6 people in the world that don’t have access to clean and safe drinking water.

This year, Twestival is holding various charity events locally for the support of the important cause of Education. This is being done by supporting Concern Worldwide which helps poorest of the poor get education. You can follow them here at @concern
So people from Kolkata or people who want to help, can join the Google Group. Also you can follow @twestivalkol or @arjunghosh for Kolkata specific information.
