Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

MARCH 24, 2015

With a few guidelines and a little training, employees can use social channels effectively in service of your organization’s mission AND their own learning. In addition, they have an internal listserv for support where staff share suggested tweets for new reports or new features or techniques on Twitter.

pulling together a list of conferences that people who work with nonprofits and technology and social change might be attend or present. What social networking tools are the best ones to integrate?

Over the past year, I''ve had a hazy sense that the social web is transitioning from a text-based to visual medium. In contrast, many of the people I work with use visual social media formats as their lead tools for creating, sharing, and consuming information. And of course, I use this blog as a reflective space to learn by writing.

Last week for WeAreMedia project, I put a call on Twitter for case studies, best practices, and links about nonprofits using social networking sites, including Ning. But many nonprofits are using Ning for peer-to-peer knowledge sharing and learning. Tell me a little about your organization's social media strategy for its ning site?

I'm thinking a lot lately about tagging communities (NpTech Tag), information coping skills, and distributed and disperse nature of networked/connected knowledge sharing. I think I'm a digital curator. Steve Rubel has an excellent definition , although it isn't new. Perhaps editors are those who also still work in print form too?

Ever since, our paths have crossed several times in nonprofit technology circles online, most recently via the Digital Divide Network listserv and the online forums at TechSoup. Since the courses are very interactive, learners gain experience in online communication and teamwork as well as new knowledge in the subject of the course.

The artifacts are reaccessioned, the labels (hopefully) recycled, but what happens to the knowledge? NSF requires grant applicants to build on prior knowledge--where do you get it? Jim: We are really trying to make this into a strong social site. What happens to an exhibit when it closes? We looked at LinkedIn as a model.

This is a question our faculty, staff, and student team asks frequently in our quest to meet our Center's mission to help build the capacity of the social sector for those who lead, manage, and support nonprofits. Our Center's AZGates web-based knowledge platform is a free service that links grantmakers and grantseekers.

And I think another important component is knowledge. And for social media, this is an area that people, you’re either really into it or not as much but you might just do it just as a matter, of course. And so do you have that sort of squared away on the roles and responsibilities and the processes? . You have like major donors.

While there are some criticisms of its consensus-based model for information-vetting, there's no doubt of its success as a collaborative knowledge-creation project. Wikis work best in situations in which content, not socializing, is primary. Woody launched it with an email to the ASTC listserv--a good group to target for his content.

Wells, Blogger and Community Organizer "We need to treat many of our social tools like door knocking, if someone comments on our site, we should take that as a hello, and use it to open a door to a potential relationship with a new leader, member, or supporter." That's the importance of goal number 2 for FIRM's social media tools.
