Why not finish your Thursday with your Geek Breakfast friends too? It’s Twestival folks! You shouldn’t miss this opportunity to hang out, have fun and help children at the same time.

It?s Twestival time, Nashville! This year, Nashville?s Twitter community is joining nearly 200 other cities across the world as we focus fundraising efforts on education and the 72 million children in the world who don?t have the opportunity to go to school. Concern Worldwide (@Concern) is this year?s beneficiary, chosen for their comprehensive and well respected approach to education. This is an issue that involves many different elements; hunger, water, teacher training, building of schools, etc. We hope to harness the power of Twitter users across the globe as a vehicle to give people insight into this cause on a deeper level.

Each participating city will host their event on March 25, and Nashville will join from 6-9pm at the private event space Avenue 9. It?s a giant tweet-up (yes, there?s a bar) and we?ll have some surprises to throw your way! A $10 donation per ticket is recommended, and tickets are available now at Amiando (we ask that you make your donation in advance if possible to help us plan for the evening).

For more information and continued updates about sponsors, event details, fundraising totals and more, visit TwestivalNashville.com and follow us at @TwestivalNash. We?ll see you on Thursday!
