Everyone is saying that…
• Social media creates a tremendous opportunity for non-profits:
1. Online donations represent 13% ($39B) of all donations today ($300B) and are growing by over 35% per year
2. Social media platforms create a new communication channel to reach donors
3. Many of the tools are free
4. Social media has tremendous viral benefits
Sounds great, right?

However, leveraging the possibilities of Social Media is much easier said than done.

What we are hearing: • “I don’t know where to start” • “It’s too confusing” • “We don’t have enough resources” • “There’s not enough time” • “There isn’t any budget” • “We’re behind”

To better understand how you are doing relative to other non-profits, there is an incredibly valuable study called the 4th Annual Non-Profit Social Network Report
