Tweetheart is an expression of love and caring for not only your sweethearts, but also your friends and Tweethearts around the world! Inspired by those have come before us, the project aims to raise $2500 in 36 hours to support three projects in Kabondo, Kenya. These projects, while small, will transform the lives of HIV/AIDS orphans.<BR/><BR/>Tweetheart will be held from 11:59am Friday February 13, 2009 until 11:59pm Saturday February 14, 2009.<BR/><BR/>How to Take Part?<BR/>1. Tweet your love and friendship on Twitter: Express your feelings of love, concern, caring and friendship to all those important people in your life. Take a moment to just say, “I love you” with no expectation of anything in return. Don’t be bashful! We all want to know that someone out there loves and cares for us. Be sure to include the @Tweetheart09 tag.<BR/><BR/>2. Give: Make a donation in honor of those you love via GiveMeaning at http://tinyurl.com/auwazg<BR/><BR/>3. Spread the love: Take the time to reflect on those you love and express that love in whatever way works for you. No three words have greater power than “I love you.” Make your Valentine’s Day about spreading love not only to those in your own life, but also to those less fortunate in your community and around the world. Tell people about this event by following @tweetheart09, blogging, retweeting, through facebook, via email or just by good old-fashioned talking.<BR/><BR/>Have a happy Valentine's Day!Barb Briggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05683119754147824066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-67745825220071051392009-02-11T14:55:00.000-08:002009-02-11T14:55:00.000-08:00great ideas on giving back! keep up the good work....great ideas on giving back! keep up the good work.Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18372651324729910724noreply@blogger.com
