Social Causes: Tweets For Boobs.

October 15, 2009 by Kristie Wells 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and my dear pal, Josh Strebel, has rolled up his social cause loving sleeves and launched the Tweets For Boobs website to support the efforts of the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

Tweets for Boobs | Raising $ for Breast Cancer Research 1 tweet at a time

The goal is to raise $10,000 for breast cancer research.

First off, the site is pure genius, and a great example of utilizing social media for fundraising. The integration with Twitter, Facebook, etc. is well done and I love how easy it is to pledge.

All you have to do is include #tweetsforboobs in a tweet through the month of October and with every tweet you are making a $1 pledge for donation.

Follow @tweetsforboobs and at the end of the month, we’ll give you your pledge total so you can make a donation to Susan G. Komen Foundation for your total pledge amount.

They have raised just over $1,000 over the last two weeks. We’d like to lend our support for this cause, and would love to see everyone in the Social Media Club community tweet just once using the #tweetsforboobs hashtag. Commit to $1. Let’s rally together and help make a difference. Do it for the boobs people.

    That’s genius! I’m glad to see good causes being promoted on Twitter more and more. It goes to show that the simplest solutions are often the best ones.
