$1,000 Tasty Tweets Bake Sale Challenge

August 18, 2009 by @jmproffitt

You already know about the Tasty Tweets Bake Sale, right? On Saturday, August 29 the Alaska Twitter community is coming together to raise money to help Juneau Twitter pal @freeryan, whose home burned down in June. Sounds nice, right?

But now it’s serious. Anchorage: you are being challenged.

Because for the first 90 minutes of the event (1:00 – 2:30pm), every dollar raised will be matched, 1-for-1 by @jmproffitt and @AgentIceCream (together), up to $1,000.

That means if we can raise $1,000 by 2:30pm through selling cookies, cakes, pies, coffee or simple cash donations, we will actually have raised $2,000! Your donation is simpy doubled. And hopefully that’s just the start.

Piling onto the challenge is Kaladi Brothers Coffee (@kaladibrothers), who is now bringing their popular locally-roasted coffee to the event at Bella Boutique (@bella_boutique) in Anchorage.

Mark your calendars! Download the Tasty Tweets flyer and spread the word. Stop by to say hello on a Saturday afternoon. Bring your friends and your sweet tooth. Sample the baking prowess of 15 local Tweeters coming together to help a friend. And please, give generously.

Stay tuned to AlaskaTweets.com for more information. Or contact Tasty Tweets organizers @Valette and @yishrocks for more information.
