Last week a bunch of fundraisers and non-profit organizations participated in our Twitter contest. They tweeted their fundraising pages, and we chose four winners at random. Here they are:
- Tom (@greenjungle) is raising money for the Florida International Teaching Zoo. You can read about his Earth Day event and see some excellent Flickr photos that help tell his story on his fundraising page.
- Alicia (@got2trotlibrary) is running the 2009 Boston Marathon for Mass Eye and Ear Infirmary. She also blogs about her marathon training and fundraising.
- Kait (@kaitswanson) is in a hurry for curry, training for the Nashville Country Music Half Marathon and raising money for the India Gospel League.
- CaringBridge (@caringbridge) is one of many non-profit organizations mobilizing their supporters to raise money online with Firstgiving.
Congratulations to all the winners! We’ve made a $25 donation to each of your fundraising pages.
