The September 2009 issue of NTEN Connect had a review of trends in online giving. Blackbaud’s research found that online revenue grew by 46% in 2009 compared to 2008. This was a decrease of only 2% compared to December 2008. Another very positive sign was that online giving in December 2009 grew 32% compared to December 2008.

I decided to try out facebook when I kept hearing about the integration of other social networking sites into facebook.
