				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter" title="TweetMob" alt="" src="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/TweetMob.jpg" width="593" height="197" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><strong>Do you think you can make </strong><strong>a</strong><strong> difference with a Tweet? We do!  </strong></em>Team Up invites you to join our #TweetMob Monday, May 6 between 6pm and 6:30pm PT on Twitter. If you haven’t heard of our TweetMob before, think of it as a Flash Mob where we all get to take over Twitter for half an hour (dancing is optional) to create buzz for the upcoming #Gigs4Good.  Let’s spread awareness about One Day&#8217;s Wages and the Gigs4Good program through the power of social media.</p>
<h2><strong>The DETAILS</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During a TweetMob we share about everyone involved with Gigs4Good.  Proceeds from this benefit show will go directly to <a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/" target="_blank">One Day’s Wages</a> and their great work to provide<a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/a-drop-in-the-bucket/" target="_blank"> clean water and sanitation</a> to those living in extreme poverty. One ticket purchased provides clean water to 15 people for one year. A sold out show would provide clean water to 7,500 people for one year.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Don’t miss the show this Thursday!  <a href="http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/360785" target="_blank">Grab tickets</a> and prepare to jam to incredible local talents <a href="http://www.theoreticsmusic.com/" target="_blank">Theoretics</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FlyMoonRoyalty" target="_blank">Fly Moon Royalty</a> and <a href="http://hotbodiesinmotion.com/" target="_blank">Hot Bodies in Motion</a> with MC, <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/mcmarcocollins/" target="_blank">Marco Collins</a>, local radio legend.  Shout out to our Gigs4Good sponsor, <a href="http://www.greenpnt.com/" target="_blank">Greenpoint Technologies</a>.  Greenpoint is covering the administrative costs of this show so that more money can go to One Day&#8217;s Wages. They&#8217;re <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/sponsor-spotlight-greenpoint-technologie/" target="_blank">amazingly cool</a>, and we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All you have to do to participate is post Tweets that elevate and celebrate Gigs4Good!  We&#8217;ve provided Click-to-Tweet links below, but if you’re feeling crafty, post an original tweet using the #Gigs4Good and #TweetMob hashtags. Every Tweet, reTweet or Facebook share, will bring good to our community - YOU do make a difference, so join our mob, connect for a cause and share a Tweet!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is our pleasure to introduce <strong><a href="http://www.greenpnt.com/" target="_blank">Greenpoint Technologies</a>—our May Gigs4Good sponsor!</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/GTI-Logo-Square1.png"><img class="alignright  wp-image-6058" alt="GTI-Logo-Square" src="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/GTI-Logo-Square1-300x300.png" width="246" height="246" /></a>Greenpoint has donated the dollars to make this Thursday&#8217;s show happen, so more money from your tickets and donations can go to One Day&#8217;s Wages. This is the type of generosity and connection to community that Team Up celebrates—and we thank Greenpoint from the bottom of our hearts.</p>
<p>So who is Greenpoint Technologies? They’re a Kirkland-based company that provides interiors for Boeing Business Jets that service VIP, corporate, government, commercial and head-of-state clients. Take a moment to check out their cool designs on <a href="http://www.greenpnt.com/" target="_blank">their website</a>. Even cooler, they embrace philanthropy and encourage volunteerism with their employees to give back to<br />
our local community.</p>
<p>Our May Gigs4Good show is not the first time Greenpoint stretched their philanthropic muscles this year. In April, Greenpoint employees, alongside their families and friends, partnered with <a href="http://www.rtseattle.org/" target="_blank">Rebuilding Together Seattle</a> for the annual Spring Rebuilding Day (also known as National Rebuilding Day). This was Greenpoint’s sixth year rolling up their sleeves to replace kitchen appliances, dry-wall, paint, clean and spruce up the yard for a local homeowner in need.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-6065 aligncenter" alt="grnpoint rebuilding group" src="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/grnpoint-rebuilding-group-300x149.png" width="300" height="149" /></p>
<p>Let’s show our appreciation for Greenpoint’s innovative business and big heart! Take a peek at their website and follow them on social media.</p>
<ul>
<li>Greenpoint on Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Greenpnt" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/Greenpnt</a></li>
<li>Greenpoint on Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/greenpointtech" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/greenpointtech</a></li>
<li>Greenpoint&#8217;s Website: <a href="http://www.greenpnt.com/" target="_blank">http://www.greenpnt.com/</a></li>
</ul>
<p>And, don’t forget to join Greenpoint employees at the show. <strong>It’s this Thursday!</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/360785" target="_blank">Grab tickets</a> and prepare to jam to incredible local talents <a href="http://www.theoreticsmusic.com/" target="_blank">Theoretics</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FlyMoonRoyalty" target="_blank">Fly Moon Royalty</a> and <a href="http://hotbodiesinmotion.com/" target="_blank">Hot Bodies in Motion</a>. Proceeds from this Gigs4Good will go directly to <a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/" target="_blank">One Day’s Wages</a> and their great work to provide clean water and sanitation to those living in extreme poverty.</p>

</div>
<p>Team Up is very excited to announce that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marco_Collins">Marco Collins</a>, Seattle’s radio guide to the grunge era, is lending his legendary voice and personality to our <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/announcing-a-gigs4good-for-one-days-wages/">May 9 Gigs4Good</a> benefiting One Days Wages!</p>
<p>Marco earned a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for his work on 107.7 The End during the 90’s, credited with helping jump start the careers of Beck, The Presidents of the United States of America, Foo Fighters and Death Cab for Cutie, among others. Over the years, he&#8217;s stayed on the cutting edge of music, hosting radio shows in California and contributing to music programming on VH1.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s back in Seattle and holding down gigs as an on-air host at KEXP, music director at Jet City Stream and music programmer at Slacker.com. Long story short, Marco knows Seattle, and he knows music. Don’t miss your opportunity to see the man behind the mic, groove to amazing local artists and give back to our May Gigs4Good non-profit partner <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/a-drop-in-the-bucket/">One Day’s Wages</a>!</p>
<p>Here are three things to do right now:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/notmarcocollins">Follow Marco</a> on Twitter for daily insights from the “music junkie”</li>
<li><a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/gigs4good/announcing-a-gigs4good-for-one-days-wages/">Check out Gigs4Good artists</a> Theoretics, Hot Bodies in Motion and Fly Moon Royalty</li>
<li><a href="file:///C:/Users/rashjen/Downloads/bit.ly/G4G15t">Buy your Tickets</a> TODAY!</li>
</ol>
<p><b>The show is only two weeks away and every ticket counts</b>: One ticket purchased provides clean water to 15 people for one year. A sold out show would provide clean water to 7,500 people for one year.</p>
<p><a href="file:///C:/Users/rashjen/Downloads/bit.ly/G4G15t">Buy your ticket now</a>—like right now—and bring a friend. You’ll need someone by your side to bask in the goodness of the night and pick your face off the floor after you’ve danced it off.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you know how much water you use every day? Most of us don’t know because we enjoy unlimited access. Take a moment to consider how we use water in our daily lives: wake up with a sip from the nightstand water glass, take a shower, brush your teeth, use the toilet, make coffee, wash dishes, drink maybe seven more glasses throughout the day, use the toilet a few more times, throw in a load of laundry, boil some pasta, water the garden… and BAM! You’ve used <b>300 gallons of water</b>.</p>
<p>It’s clear that clean water is essential to most aspects of our daily routine and critical to our overall health and well-being. Yet consider these statistics:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/donate/org/odw-water-fund">780 million people</a> – or one in nine people across the globe– lack access to clean water.</li>
<li>More than 2.5 billion don’t have <a href="http://www.unwater.org/statistics_san.html">access to a toilet</a>.</li>
<li>There are <a href="http://water.org/water-crisis/one-billion-affected/">3.4 million deaths</a> worldwide every year due to water, sanitation, and hygiene-related causes</li>
<li>84% of those deaths are children due to water-borne microbes that cause diarrheal diseases such as cholera.</li>
</ul>
<p>Imagine having to choose between taking that shower and drinking a glass of water, or being forced to rely on unsafe water sources that have been contaminated by raw sewage or a nearby dump. This is a struggle that millions of people deal with every single day.</p>
<p>Our nonprofit partner, <a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/donate/org/odw-water-fund">One Day’s Wages</a> (ODW), is using their inspiring mission to raise funds  toward carefully vetted global partnerships that get clean water to those who need it most. Through their <a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/donate/org/odw-water-fund">Water Fund</a>, ODW has granted over $150,000 for clean water projects in seven countries, impacting over 20,000 people</p>
<p>There is more work to be done. <strong>T</strong>he good news is you can help – and dance your face off at the same time! <strong><a href="http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/360785">Grab tickets</a> to our next<a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/event/gigs4good15/"> Gigs4Good </a> show on May 9<sup>th</sup> </strong>and rock out to some incredible local talent like Fly Moon Royalty and Hot Bodies in Motion. Proceeds from this Gigs4Good will go directly to One Day’s Wages, which will <strong>help to fund their partners and the great work to provide clean water and sanitation to those living in extreme poverty.</strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ah, water. A necessary and refreshing resource that we Americans are so lucky to have access to at the turn of a knob. However, the reality is that nearly 900 million people around the world do not have access to clean water. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let this get you down because we can all pitch in and help change these staggering statistics by supporting Seattle-based nonprofit One Day’s Wages and the great work they do.</p>
<p>Join us on<strong> May 9 </strong>at the historic <a href="http://www.columbiacitytheater.com/" target="_blank">Columbia City Theater</a> for the next Gigs4Good show,<strong> an event to support One Day’s Wag</strong><strong>es’ mission to provide clean water to developing nations.</strong> The show will feature music from Seattle soul and hip hop artists <a href="http://www.theoreticsmusic.com/" target="_blank">Theoretics</a>, <a href="http://hotbodiesinmotion.com/" target="_blank">Hot Bodies in Motion</a> and <a href="http://flymoonroyalty.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Fly Moon Royalty</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.onedayswages.org/" target="_blank">One Day&#8217;s Wages</a> (ODW) is a new grassroots movement of people, stories, and actions to alleviate extreme global poverty. Their name was inspired by their vision that simply donating one day&#8217;s worth of your wages can significantly contribute to a cause. <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/odw_logo-1.png"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5977" alt="odw_logo (1)" src="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/odw_logo-1.png" width="170" height="95" /></a> Since 2009, ODW has grown its reach to promote awareness of global poverty issues and support relief efforts through partnerships with smaller organizations in developing regions. Team Up is honored to work with such a successful local nonprofit contributing to positive global change.</p>
<p>Tickets for this Gigs4Good go on sale next <strong>Tuesday, March 26</strong> for $20 each. <a href="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/event/gigs4good15">Sign up for our e-newsletter</a> to receive a reminder and a link to the ticket page. Your ticket purchase or donation will go towards ODW&#8217;s efforts to provide clean water to people who are struggling to survive.</p>
<p>For more information on ODW&#8217;s innovative and world-changing work, connect with them on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/onedayswages" target="_blank">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/onedayswages" target="_blank">Twitter</a>. Don’t miss your chance to get down with this cause and some local beats! We’ll see you on May 9th.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The SXSW Music conference kicks off today, as many of you already know. But are you drowning in the SXSW Music media saturation? Narrowing down the bevy of updates can be challenging&#8230;exhausting even. Why not get updates from an outlet that speaks your language? As with most things, we recommend going local.</p>
<p>Here’s a few of Team Up’s Pacific Northwest favorites for staying on top of SXSW music events both near and far:</p>
<p><strong>Apes on Tape</strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5923" alt="Cascadia-SXSW-Showcase-662x1024" src="http://www.teamupfornonprofits.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Cascadia-SXSW-Showcase-662x1024-193x300.jpg" width="193" height="300" /></p>
<p>Apes on Tape is a music blog founded in 2009 and has ties up and down the West Coast, from Seattle to Portland to San Francisco. It is dedicated to shining the spotlight on talented independent musicians, covering news for PNW artists as well as national acts. This year at SXSW Music, Apes on Tape is bringing more attention to the music fruitfulness of our area by hosting its <a href="http://apesontape.com/apes-on-tape-presents-cascadia-the-greater-pacific-northwest-official-sxsw-showcase/" target="_blank">Cascadia</a> showcase this Saturday, March 16. The showcase will feature Gigs4Good alumni Ivan &amp; Alyosha, Lemolo, and Ravenna Woods as well as Kithkin, Parenthetical Girls and Brainstorm.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>SSG Music</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>With a steady stream of broad music news across indie and mainstream &#8212; pop, rock and hip hop &#8212; SSG will have an <a href="http://www.ssgmusic.com/staff-bios/" target="_blank">army of writers</a> on the ground at SXSW Music this year. Their coverage is sure to shine a spotlight on PNW artists as well as highlight possibly new-to-you bands and musicians from across the country.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>KEXP</strong></p>
<p>Always a great music resource, especially during SXSW, KEXP will <a href="http://blog.kexp.org/sxsw-2013/" target="_blank">broadcast live</a> from Mellow Johnny’s in Austin starting this Wednesday, March 13. Iron &amp; Wine, Wild Cub, The Zombies, and Telekinesis, among other artists, will play live sets. You can listen any time via KEXP.org or its sponsor TuneIn.</p>

<p><em><strong>Do you think you can make </strong><strong>a</strong><strong> difference with a Tweet? We do! </strong></em>We at Team Up would like to invite you to join us at our virtual #TweetMob Wednesday, February 6th between 6pm and 6:30pm on Twitter.

Chris was personally connected to Outdoors for All and this Gigs4Good benefit show will raise money for a Chris Rudolph Scholarship Fund.</p>
<p>Our Gigs4Good benefit show will take place Friday, 2/8 at The Tractor Tavern, and will feature acts from Charity Rose Thielen and Josiah Johnson from Seattle band, <a href="http://www.theheadandtheheart.com/">The Head and the Heart</a> along with <a href="http://smokeybrights.bandcamp.com/">Smokey Brights</a> and <a href="http://rivergiant.org/">River Giant</a>. These fantastic local artists are joining forces to help raise proceeds for the Outdoors for All Foundation, bringing essential recreation to those with disabilities.</p>

<p>Local music fans take note: a perfect brew of music and film is on tap at the SIFF Cinema Uptown this Thursday night. Team Up is presenting<a href="http://www.siff.net/cinema/reserve.aspx?FID=317&amp;id=15393" target="_blank"> Bands on the Big Screen</a>, a benefit film screening that will showcase videos of well-known and well-loved local musical acts, made by five talented directors with local roots.</p>
<p>“The cause?,” you ask. Yes, this is a benefit, like all of our events. This week, we are raising funds for a fantastic local nonprofit that many locals have grown up with. You guessed it: <a href="http://www.nwfolklife.org/" target="_blank">Northwest Folklife</a>!</p>
<p>We are teaming up on Thursday to support an organization that has been tastemakers of culture in Seattle for over 40 years by hosting the largest free music and arts festival in the nation, the <a href="http://www.nwfolklife.org/festival/" target="_blank">Northwest Folklife Festival</a>.</p>
<p><strong>5 Things You Didn’t Know About Northwest Folklife:</strong></p>
<ol>
<ol>
<li>Northwest Folklife <strong>supports year-round programs</strong>. They put out a CD every year with great performances from the past year’s Festival called “Roots &amp; Branches,” manage a music education after-school program in partnership with Dusty Strings, produce concerts and dances, and team up with other nonprofits throughout the year to help communities find innovative ways to present their culture through music and art</li>
<li>The Northwest Folklife Festival has been taking place each and <strong>every year in Seattle Center since 1972</strong>. That makes the <strong>2013 event the 42nd Festival!</strong></li>
<li>The Festival attracts over <strong>6,000 performers and 800 volunteers</strong> each year.</li>
<li>Last year’s festival featured <strong>149 hours of workshops and jams and 504.25 hours of performances and presentations, for a grand total of 653.25 hours of entertainment!</strong></li>
<li>If you went to Folklife 24 hours a day, it would take the <strong>entire month of February</strong> to see it all.</li>
</ol>
</ol>

<p><strong>Local Bands Rock the Big Screen</strong><br />
Thursday’s event has got some serious Seattle cred. The filmmakers, Jon Jon Augustavo, Brad Curran, Hayley Young, Stephan Gray and Tyler Kalberg work with artists from indie-pop band Pickwick to hip-hop storytellers Macklemore and Ryan Lewis — and we are reminded that our moody, caffeine-addicted, water-logged town is home to some of the most fresh, honest, and relevant music being made today.</p>
<p><strong>One Night Only</strong><br />
If you love the Seattle arts scene, you need to be a part of this one-night only event. <a href="http://bit.ly/BandsOnScreen" target="_blank">Tickets</a> are going fast! The $15 admission price includes the 90 minute screening, and a post-screening Q&amp;A session with the directors.</p>
<p>Thursday // January 31st // SIFF Cinema Uptown // 7 PM // $15 // <strong>Tickets: <a href="http://bit.ly/BandsOnScreen" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/BandsOnScreen</a></strong></p>
