Denver Flash Mob For Good

Posted on 05. Jun, 2010 by admin in blog

Go ahead and ask. What is a flash mob?

Wikipedia roughly defines a flash mob as, ‘a group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and pointless act for a brief time, then quickly disperse.’

That sounds fun, but what if that flash mob assembles for something more meaningful?

Well, that would be a ‘Social Mob for Good’ which is designed to raise awareness for social agencies around the world.

Their Facebook page reads:

“The mission of #somob4good is to raise awareness for social service agencies around the world.

Most social service agencies suffer from lack of funding and therefore cannot or are limited in providing much needed support in the communities they serve. So, let’s give them an opportunity for awareness.”

Friday’s flash mob, in Denver, was to raise awarness for Work Options for Women who’s mission is to help impoverished women gain the skills and confidence they need to work their way out of poverty and become gainfully and permanently employed in the food service industry.
