Bangalore, Sep 11: They mainly express themselves in the virtual world, but in order to help Bangalore’s underprivileged children, the Twitter community of India’s IT hub will come out in the open to tweet for a cause on Saturday. The event christened “Twestival” or Twitter festival will see Twitter users of the city come together to raise money for needy children. The money raised in the event will be donated to Bangalore-based NGO “Dream A Dream”, working for needy children. The festival has also come up with a cheeky slogan: Tweet, meet and give. “The idea behind the festival is to help underprivileged children who are struggling to get their daily food and education. We want an equal society and an end to poverty,” Hrish Thota, event coordinator, told IANS.
