Last year, Zoetica has its official launch at SxSW Interactive with Zoetica’s Charity Challenge. It was the anti-SxSW in that we were looking for what we could give back rather than what we could get.
This year we are back again with a variety of events and panels in which we are participating. We hope to see you all at one or more of these.
FRIDAY March 11, 2011
Social Media Friends Nonprofit Meetup
Driskill Hotel Bar
Time: 6-9pm
Our accounts director, Julie Pippert, has put together a Social Media Friends Nonprofit Meetup on Friday night. This gathering will include lots of fun and sharing, so plan to be there. Everyone will pay their own tab as this is less an event and more a gathering of friends. Would love to see you there.
