Everywhere the social media has created a change – a change in people’s minds, in how they behave, interact and connect with each other. No doubt, it is an important element of the progress happening all around us.
In such a context, how can NGOs benefit from this kind of digital revolution where they not only become part of this global community but also use it for raising funds and ensuring sustainability of their organizations?
The webinar on ‘Social Media: Using Facebook and More to Sell Your Mission‘ to be held on September 25, 2012 from 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM GMT will provide information about extraordinary opportunities available for NGOs to connect with resources. The webinar will provide information about the Social Media landscape (including an overview of Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and e-Newsletters); how to identify ways to best participate and engage with donors and potential funders; and develop strategy for integrating social media management into your work plan.
