2016 was many things on Twitter, but also: we've raised $220,565 for MSF/Yemen's humanitarian emergency. Last hours: http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep
The campaign to support MSF/Yemen has reached $223,255, with matches and 746 donations. Donors blame tweet-hassling! http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep pic.twitter.com/oVNpjUWEo4
Last three hours of this fundraiser for MSF/Yemen. Only $600 away from having collectively raised $225,000. http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep
We raised $226,425 for MSF & Yemen—a humanitarian emergency where millions face starvation. Last hour of campaign: http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep pic.twitter.com/w4AipZgrRf
MSF/Yemen campaign wrapped up. Started out of despair, turned into collective effort. We raised $229,260. Thank you. http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep pic.twitter.com/bYm8KYpF6M
As folks get back to work: This MSF/Yemen campaign started with my $15,000 pledge; ended with almost $230,000.

I will write thank you emails as best I can, but the MSF donation page and tools are .. a bit lacking. 802 donations. Can't download.
Donation pages of life-saving NGOs are .. so crummy. Maybe tech people who want to do good can help fix that? Big need, area of expertise.
Update: Just talked to MSF. They said: ~"Thrilled to be back at work to see campaign that raised $230,000. Money to be earmarked for Yemen."
We are working to add the matches (another $102,000 off the page!) explicitly to the campaign page: http://events.doctorswithoutborders.org/campaign/zeynep
Apparently, MSF hadn't seen a campaign exactly like this—social media, size, scope. (I had no idea either—hah. Literally stumbled into it).
