So, you know how we've been giving you points for watching Travis McCoy's video "One At A Time" for Staying Alive and uploading pictures of yourselves holding signs with lyrics on it, and telling you how your photos will appear on MTV's jumbotron in Times Square, NY in front of thousands of people? Well, today we've got proof. Check out these glorious photos of SocialVibe members on MTV's digital billboard in Times Square!
By the way, if you think this is good, just wait until you see the video. Coming soon. It's here! Check it out below!
So incredible! Do you see yourself?! A huge thank you to all of you who uploaded a photo in support of Staying Alive.
After the devastating earthquake in Haiti last month, we quickly partnered up with Direct Relief to create a way that SocialVibe members could effectively contribute to the cause. In just under a month, SocialVibe members have been able to go above and beyond that goal, and help Direct Relief provide thousands of dollars worth of medical supplies.
Thanks to you guys and to other Direct Relief partners, the non-profit just shipped an outstanding $15 million worth of emergency and medical aid supplies down to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Here's a special Thank You for SocialVibe members from Jim at Direct Relief!

It's been quite an incredible few weeks for SocialVibe's most popular cause, To Write Love On Her Arms. Not only did they secure first place in our Givapalooza contest, but they also hosted HEAVY AND LIGHT '09, which you can see a taste of in the video below.
TWLOHA is starting their year off strong and attempting to top their December success by setting an incredible goal on SocialVibe of 450,000 minutes of support. If they meet their goal by midnight on January 31, we'll give them an additional $20,000 that will be used to fund the IMAlive online crisis center! IMAlive would be the first live peer-to-peer suicide prevention service.
Happy Monday everyone! We'd like to quickly address the issue of Pink Ball shipments. Recently, we've been noticing a larger volume of e-mails, tweets and comments from members inquiring about the status of their Pink Ball being shipped out.
If you have already qualified for your Pink Ball, registered for it and have been waiting for its (delayed) arrival, please accept our most sincere apologies. We currently ship all our Pink Balls by hand right from our office. Because of the abundance of Pink Ball requests lately, our shipping process has become a bit backed up. Not to worry, though - we have a huge shipment going out very soon, so your Pink Ball should be at your doorstep shortly.
Once again, we apologize. We are so thrilled that you are that excited about receiving your Pink Ball and can't wait to see the photos you send us! Thanks for your loyalty and support. We appreciate you more than you'll ever know!
We'd like to take this opportunity to give a big THANK YOU to our members who completed the COFFEE-MATE engagement on SocialVibe (sending a note of encouragement with Dress For Success). With your support, COFFEE-MATE was able to meet their goal of a $150,000 donation to Dress For Success, an organization that assists disadvantaged women by providing clothes, support and career skills to help them reach their goals.
What a wonderful way to start the new year. We really couldn't have done it without our members, so thank you again for completing the COFFEE-MATE engagement and sharing it with all your friends!

Congratulations to YourConscience, who has been randomly selected as the winner of a limited-edition Rock Band 2 for Wii signed by Linkin Park! For months now, Music for Relief supporters have been sending invites in hopes of getting 8 friends to sign up for SocialVibe to help MFR.
One of our staff, Dana, with the goods.
The contest is over, but we will have more, and MFR still needs your help to reach their goal to build an environmentally friendly home for a family in need! Click here to support MFR on SocialVibe.
