#beatcancer Sets Record for Most Shared Message
If you used the hashtag #beatcancer on Twitter, Facebook or your blog last weekend, you're not alone. #beatcancer set the Guinness world record for "most shared social message," garnering over 200,000 mentions in a single day! Better yet, sponsors eBay/PayPal and MillerCoors pledged to donate a penny to cancer research for every time the hashtag was posted over the weekend, resulting in over $70,000 in donations to Alex's Lemonade Stand, Bright Pink, Spirit Jump, and, of course, SU2C.
#beatcancer has now hit over a million mentions online and continues to be a top trending topic in social media. Thanks to everyone who posted the hashtag!
