Tweetaton for St Joseph's, and Autism Ireland

A 24-hour Tweetaton in aid of St Joseph's Rochfortbridge and Autism Ireland will take place on Friday March 8 from 6pm.The brainchild of Digital Eire's Michael Moran and Ray Carolan, the aim is to get #sjrai (St Joseph's Rochfortbridge Autism Ireland) trending not just nationally, but internationally."Our company Digital Eire have developed the website tweetaton.com, where businesses can sponsor a slot for €100. The whole idea is that we will drive traffic back to the website over the 24 hours and those businesses then will get huge exposure nationally and internationally," explained Michael Moran of Digital Eire last Friday when the initiative was launched at the school."Throughout the day we will have live webcasts, as well as an auction where people can bid for prizes, of which one is a miniature Harley Davidson donated by Kia Motors.""The funds raised from the Tweetaton will be divided 50/50 between St Joseph's Secondary School, Rochfortbridge and Autism Ireland. Digital Eire Marketing is not charging any fees for this concept or taking any percentage of proceeds from the event."To find out more about the event, sponsorship, or to make a donation, go to www.tweetaton.com.
