The Asheville Holiday Tweet Drive on December 17th at The Hop

On December 17, 2010 from 7pm to 9pm, we are having a special event at The Hop in North Asheville. This holiday season let us Asheville Twitter and online folks come together to eat ice cream and support a worthy cause. This will help some WNC children and families have a happier holiday. TweetUp to benefit Toys For Tots of WNC. wnctoysfortots.orgEveryone is invited. Suggested toy donation valued at around $10 (must be new and packaged, please donate what you can). There will be one of Asheville's US Marines there with TFT info and a fishbowl for monetary donations.

Friday December 17th from 7-9pm at The Hop Ice Cream Cafe
640 Merrimon Ave Ste 103, 828-254-2224


Toys For Tots can also be donated to the drop boxes at The Hop and The Hop West (721 Haywood Rd) through 12/16. Cans for MANNA Food Bank, mannafoodbank.org, can also be donated to The Hop (not west). Asheville is joining many of America's cities by supporting Tweet Drive 2010.


The Holiday Tweet Drive is a nation-wide toy/clothing drive that will use social media to give back to children who are less fortunate and spread some Holiday cheer along the way. We have some amazing events lined up in cities all across the country that will host each toy drive and allow attendees to enjoy a night of networking and holiday festivities. All of the updates and communication can be found through Twitter and we hope to stay true to the social nature of the “Tweet” Drive. What makes our Tweet-Ups different then the rest is the admission fee. Rather than paying a small entrance fee, we only ask that you donate a NEW toy or NEW article of clothing. After that, please enjoy networking with our other attendees! Each donation will go to a local shelter or charity from each city. We Hope you will join us at your city’s Tweet Drive Tweet Up, and assist us in giving back to children who are less fortunate all around the country.
With that said, Happy Tweeting, Happy Networking, and most importantly, Happy Holidays from all of us involved with the Holiday Tweet Drive."
