It may be easy for big groups, with photogenic interests -- like the National Wildlife Federation's Wildlife Habitat program or The Nature Conservancy's nature picture contest -- to use something like Flickr, but you're too small?

SEPTEMBER 17, 2007

September 17, 2007 There is an interesting discussion happening between Holly Ross, soon to be ED of NTEN, and Allan Benamer , about web statistics, and whether or not nonprofits should be “transparent&# and publish their web statistics. And, he thinks that NTEN should be responsive to him, as a member, in asking to publish web stats.

Online fundraising, something I spend a large percentage of my work week thinking about, accounted for just 2% of total fundraising in 2008. That's why we're excited to see a fantastic new contest out there: the Paperless Choice Challenge. . But direct mail has one big problem: it's not so good for trees.

While " Tweet and Meet " events, called "Tweet Ups," were popular with Twitter users in 2008, "Tweet-Meet-Donate" events became more and more common in 2009. And finally, fun and public humiliation - as NTEN's executive director Holly Ross discovered, can be good levers for donations. More than $550,000 was raised last March. .

A recent example is the Humane Society's Spa Day Photo Contest which raised over $600,000. Another example is the campaign Holly Ross, at NTEN, just finished to raise $10,000 for NTC scholarships using social media tools and a lot of her personality. James Young, from Convio, spoke about these types of campaigns on the panel.
