TweetsGiving ran tweets to help build a classroom in a school. The web-based project was set up to raise $10,000 for the school located in Tanzania, and how the word spread! Tweets were pumped out of Twitter, and in less than two days the amount was raised through a lot of co-operation from enthusiasts all around. People were asked to send tweets, anything they’re thankful for and include a #TweetsGiving tag as well as the link to the site.

The project also asked for a donation of $10 for a brick in the new classroom, or $100 to become a “Top Turkey”, thereby also asking people to spread the news through blogs and other means.
