LOS ANGELES, July 30 (UPI) -- U.S. actress Kirstie Alley helped raise $28,000 through Aquathon, a 24-hour Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Ustream telethon for clean water in Africa.
Alley and charity organizer Steve Woods presided last weekend over the event, which organizers touted as the world's first 24-hour social media driven telethon.
