The last two weeks of the contest, Amy and 10 others worked 8-10 hours a day blogging, emailing supporters, making phone calls, and recruiting teens and college students to help them towards gathering donations for the Cause. How frequently did we email? In the beginning we emailed our supporters about once a week.

A quick Google search shows that the man listed as the primary contact for the organization is dead. An email is sent to the nonprofit every time a Cause is created that benefits them, and they can then view the cause and contact our nonprofit support team if theyd like to disassociate their organization."

We know that lots of orgs have heard some variation of this from their bosses—“We need to get on the Twitter!” This was without the benefit of huge email lists, paid media efforts, or even the expertise of the campaign (though they did support the efforts once they heard about them).

Because Google Grants can’t be used for direct advocacy, our standard “Contact your lawmakers about this issue today!!!”-style How funny, I got a message today from an org apologizing for sending me an e-mail addressed to "Christopher," and I thought of you. :) And I totally agree with you about the testing.

I work for a well-established non-profit (organization has been around over 100 years) and we dont have "online contacts" for most of our donor base and still received a lot of checks in the mail. I cringe when I see the tons of mail environmental orgs send every year. It is risky to rent email addresses.

Another aspect I liked about Moms Rising online series is they utilized social networking to spread their message in their thank you email. Often I find with orgs that I work with, someone will send an email to their "all staff" email list that says basically: "OMG! “P.S. Tell Congress to fix this!"
