Tweet Divas “An Intimate Affair” Garners Donations to Three Triangle Women’s Shelters

Our Triangle ladies who tweet, who use social media to build online relationships and communities, continue to raise the bar of generosity!
On Tuesday, April 19th twenty (20) Triangle women gathered together for our first evening event of 2011 mixing and mingling among each other all the while raising awareness and donations for three worthy Triangle area women’s shelters-
Harbor Inc. of Johnston County
and
Interact of Wake County
We purposely chose those three charities and the suggested donation simply because of a past blog post by a Triangle resident who made us aware of the issue. As we watched the women enter Tir Na Nog for the evening, they brought bags and bags of donations containing women’s bras, panties, and PJs totaling upwards of $565 worth. Did we say 20 women? Yes, we did!
Donations for 3 Women's Shelters in the Triangle
One of the best things about being a Tweet Diva is that we get to make a difference to our community. Our motto is “Because our worth is far and above 140 characters” after all.
Thank you to every single lady that came out that evening and to the representatives of DCRC, Harbor Inc, and Interact for joining us. We appreciate all that you each do for your respective communities.
No woman should live in fear, feel unworthy, or unloved. Together, our Triangle Tweet Divas showed that we support the efforts of each of the charities in which we donated. Good stuff! Good stuff.
Stay tuned for information about our next official evening event tentatively schedule for June 2nd.
In the meantime, we encourage you to attend the Triangle Tweetup – the LARGEST gathering of Triangle area Tweeters (men and women) that occurs each year. As in previous years, it will take place at sponsor – Bronto – headquarters in the American Tobacco District in Durham on May 19th. For more information, check out the Eventbrite RSVP. Hope to see YOU there!
