around the world will be hosting Twestivals which bring together Twitter communities for an evening of
fun and to raise
money and awareness for charity: water. The
Twestival is organized 100% by volunteers in cities around the world
and 100% of the money raised from these events will go directly to
support charity: water
projects. By rallying together globally, under short timescales, for
a single aim on the same day, the Twestival hopes to bring awareness
to this global crisis. charity:
water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking
water to people in developing nations by funding sustainable clean
water solutions in areas of greatest need.

Vegas Twestival you are making a donation to charity: water. Each donor
level's ticket is treated the same. What you decide to contribue is
completely up to you, we just require a minimum of only $20. Our goal
as a city is to raise $12,000, enough to build three wells.
In addition to door entry we are offering raffle tickets which will
be entered into a drawing for prizes donated by some of our sponsors.
There are no limits on the amount of raffle tickets you can purchase.
Guests that purchase the Gold and Platinum Donor levels will receive
five raffle tickets per donor in exchange for their contributions, but
you may also purchase additional single raffle tickets or five
packs. Guests that purchase the Platinum Donor level will also
receive a "thank you" gift for their generous
contribution. Gifts are limited to the first 50 Platinum donors. All
guests will receive complimentary "Tweetini" cocktails
throughout the evening.
