Third Annual Benetwit was the best one yet!

By: Jessica Hartman | 12/15/2011

Last week, Standing Partnership hosted our Third Annual St. Louis Benetwit (a tweet-up for a good cause) to benefit the United Way of Greater St. Louis, and the event was, once again, a great success. 

The event, held at Third Degree Glass Factory, included complimentary appetizers, an open bar and a live glassblowing demonstration. We were also very excited to welcome the St. Louis Social Media Group's members.

Throughout the evening, guests were invited to donate at the door, or by purchasing hand-blown glass ornaments (Third Degree Glass Factory generously donated 10 percent of each ornament sale), participating in a raffle and by scanning QR codes placed throughout the venue. For each QR code scanned, Standing Partnership donated one dollar to the United Way of Greater St. Louis. The event raised over $3,000 for a very worthy cause!

Each year, we at Standing Partnership look forward to our annual Benetwit, and each year, the event gets even better. We hope you'll join us again next year as we celebrate 2012 and join together for a great cause.
