Northbrook, IL (PRWEB) July 7, 2010

Helping domestic violence survivors just became as easy as sending a tweet to your friends and family. The Allstate Foundation and the national YWCA have joined together to help end domestic violence through the #Tweet4YWCA campaign.

Beginning July 7, The Allstate Foundation is donating $1 to the YWCA for every tweet that includes #Tweet4YWCA, up to $75,000. The tweet-a-thon will run from July 7-16.

Additionally, Allstate Foundation’s website, http://www.ClickToEmpower.org , will feature a leader board, live streaming tweets, and a real time calculator of how much has been donated during the campaign.

Allstate Foundation, @ClickToEmpower, and YWCA, @YWCAUSA, have a commitment to ending domestic violence and providing economic empowerment programs.
