BIG Tweet Day 2012

June 21 is the longest day of the year and also happens to be national United Way “Day of Action!”

In true Bay Area form, we’re taking to social media to mobilize our Army of Champions for a BIG Tweet Day to highlight  the new federal Affordable Care Act and its benefits for uninsured kids. We know, it sounds GREAT, here’s how to get involved:

  • Step 1: Get on Twitter
  • Step 2: TWEET on June 21st United Way fans across the country will start tweeting at 1:25 pm in honor of the United Way’s 125th anniversary. You can tweet at 1:25pm or anytime on June 21
  • Continue to Live United
It’s really that simple! And, to make it even easier, we’ve crafted some sample tweets for you. Who know advocacy could be as simple as copy, paste, Tweet?
