** UPDATE: ** Paul dyed his hair blue.

Here’s a fun promotion from the Shepherds of Good Hope .  They want to get to 2,000 followers on their @shepsgoodhope Twitter feed.  As of today, they’re just under 200 away from that goal.

If they reach it, Paul Soucie, the organization’s executive director, will dye his hair blue for a week.

Right now, Paul’s hair is grey/white.  He says Twitter is a useful tool for the organization to raise awareness about the work they do with the homeless.  The more followers they have, the bigger the network, and the more people they can reach with their message.

If you’re on Twitter, you can follow them here , and take Paul one step closer to blue hair.
