Charlotte Twestival raised over $2,000 for A Child’s Place this past Thursday at a red carpet reception hosted by Butter. CLTwestival provided a way for local Twitter users to use social media to raise funds and awareness for a local non-profit.

According to the organizers:

Twestival is Charlotte’s part of the world-wide Twestival fundraising event. On March 24^th, Charlotte joined over 200 other cities across the globe in raising funds for local non-profits. In Charlotte, CLTwestival raised funds for A Child’s Place. With over 4,400 homeless children in Charlotte Mecklenberg schools, A Child’s Place is a local non-profit that fights to erase the impact of homelessness on children and their education.
