On 12 February 2009, 200 international cities hosted a Twestival to bring Twitter communities together in an effort to raise money for charity: water. Twestival was organized 100% by volunteers and 100% of the money raised from these events went directly to support charity: water projects. By rallying together under short timescales, for a single aim on the same day, the Twestival has brought worldwide public awareness to the global water crisis.
