Twestival is a global coordinated fundraising effort for charity:water. The goal is to have as many cities around the world on February 12, 2009, have events to gather people to have fun, raise awareness, and raise funds for charity:water.

By rallying together globally, under short timescales, for a single aim on the same day, the Twestival hopes to bring awareness to this global crisis. charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations by funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need.

Right now 1.1 billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in six of us. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Many communities in developing nations often have a plentiful supply of clean drinking water just below the ground, but no way to get to it.

The 2010 charity calendars are hot off the press and on Sunday evening, March 29th, the participants and all volunteers involved with the "Naked" calendar project are coming together for an autograph signing and champagne party! Bring your already bought calendar or buy one at the door and mingle with the most awesome techs in Portland! All proceeds from this event and from all calendar sales will go to p:ear, Free Geek, and the PCC Multimedia Club. Local businesses have donated various prizes for our on sight raffle so bring everyone you know and let's have a great time and give it up for our community! Website: http://dosomethingforacause.com

Join the PDX CANswer Project!

Come for drinks, food, & networking with other young professionals who want to make a difference in the fight against cancer (& plan cool events)!

The PDX CANswer Project is a membership organization of young philanthropic Oregon residents who range in age from 22 to 40. Our members share in the belief that cancer will be eliminated in our lifetime and that through our ongoing fundraising efforts, cancer will no longer threaten the lives of those we love.
