Twestival Baltimore

Twestival Baltimore will be held between September 11-13. The theme is HFTwestival, a nod back to the glory days of HFS and the HFStival. Help us spread the word in Baltimore - and we'll see you in September! _______________________________________ Twestival was born out of the idea that if cities are able to collaborate on an international scale, but work from a local level, it would result in a spectacular impact. While Twestival Global put the spotlight around one cause, Twestival Local is encouraging cities around the world to host events in support a local cause. 100% of the proceeds from these events will go direct to the local not-for-profit selected. Everyone involved with Twestival is a volunteer; majority are crowdsourced using Twitter. Cities are asked to set a fundraising goal for their event, but it is much more than reaching a financial target. Twestival Local is a fantastic opportunity to connect with people in your community. The goal is to give people a chance to feel they are contributing to a larger social initiative, but bring the cause a little closer to home.
