SunTweet Charity Tweetup

frontphotoLast night was a gathering of Twitter users in Park City, UT, during the Sundance Film Festival. It was arranged through Twitter, and we all chipped in $5 or more, and at the end of the evening voted on which charity got the money that had been donated. Serenity won the popular vote, and got a little over $600. Serenity is Twitter user @Phil801‘s daughter. From Serenity’s web site:

Serenity was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia on May 24, 2008. Lifting Up Serenity is dedicated to her recovery and supporting her family throughout their journey through childhood cancer.

Donations can still be made on the Social Hat web site, or directly to Serenity.

@ghennipher
@jyl_momIF
@krista_parry
@Jesse
@EXIT_Stage_Left
@startupprincess
@carysnowden

And honorable mention goes to @H0neyB for helping with the door and the video, as well as giving me a ride up to Park City, since my Jeep is having issues.

We streamed the event live using UStream. One of the founders, Brad06, was watching our stream, and put us on the front page. We had over 130 people watching the stream! Here are the clips:
