I've only sought out birthday wishes from "verified" accounts of individuals - otherwise, corporations would use this for shameless self-promotion purposes. Besides, getting a personalized birthday wish from Kristin Davis means a lot more (at least to me) than a generic birthday wish from Pepsi. (And while it's not an exact science, I'd think that anyone with a verified account from Twitter must be well-known enough that he/she qualifies to be a celebrity.
My big thanks go out to Record Setter for helping with this, as well as all the celebrities who've written to me both this year and last year. Also, I'd like to thank Robin Roberts of ABC News, who re-tweeted my birthday-wish request to her followers. If you'd like to help directly, you can send a check made out to Norwalk Public Library, to 1 Belden Avenue, Norwalk, CT, 06850.
Big thanks to the URDB for posting this!
Anyone who would like to help should go to http://www.fergusonlibrary.org/donate - you can do your part to make sure the branches of Stamford, Connecticut's Ferguson Library stay open.
(Oh, and not to brag, but I actually donated $200.
Also, actress Kristin Davis was kind enough to add her birthday wish later on - and agreed to make a donation herself!)

I with Peter, maybe we re-title to make "Most Birthday Wishes From Verified Accounts On Twitter" - thoughts?
Peter Craig
