Christmas In July

Event Start Time: 7/12/2014 00:00 GMT
End Time: 7/14/2014 00:00 GMT

What's happening?

On July 12 & 13 by GMT time (local times shown above), YWS will be holding a Christmas in July celebration! During this celebration, we'll be encouraging YWSers to give away as many gifts as possible. As part of this, everyone will be given an extra 250 points to spend. Since gifts cost 50 points each, that's equivalent to five gifts.

How do I give a gift?

There are two ways. The easiest way is to go to a person's profile and click on "Send gift" in the sidebar. The other way is to go to the Settings Dashboard (the gear tab), then click on "Gifts."
