FILM
• Make a short video 30-90 seconds about your campaign. Post on your YouTube and social media channels and share with local media.
• Film the impact of your work! All you need is your phone to get footage of your team volunteering, giving back or helping others. Share on social media to spread the word about what you do.
• Use Facebook/Instagram Live/Twitter Live to share updates and interviews with your community and people you serve.
• Use Instagram TV to give longer explanations or Q and As about your campaign and engage with your followers.
BLOG AND LINKEDIN
Write about your Giving Tuesday campaign on your organisation's blog or LinkedIn page. We suggest blog pieces run around 250 words and include photos, videos, and hyperlinks so people can learn more. Make sure to include images and impact stories - don't just ask for support, explain why the readers support matters to your mission. You can also get your post featured on the Giving Tuesday website
