Twestival.fm is a newly launched, Twitter-centered charity/music project based around raising money for the cause of charity: water, a non-profit organization dedicated to drilling wells and making safe drinking water available in developing nations. Their goal? $20,000

Musicians and labels are donating music for streaming and download, available on the site’s SoundCloud player, through 2/5 - 2/19, with some big-name participants so far like Bloc Party, The Rakes, and Imogen Heap. Listeners are encouraged to make a donation and to spread the word by tweeting about the project on Twitter. On 2/12, over 175 cities around the world will be hosting physical Twestival events for entertainment, awareness, and raising additional funds.

If you are, or know of, a musician, please consider submitting your track (deadline is 2/12) and donating even just a few bucks for this great cause- 100% goes to charity!
