Greetings, fellow do-gooders!

Join me, Key the Raccoon, as we dive into another exciting chapter of nonprofit exploration.

πŸ“¬ Summary

This week we’re embarking on a journey, ready to explore the nuances of social media event policies, unlock the secrets to attracting potential legacy donors, and delve into an inspiring story about Patricia Hill Collins, an esteemed sociologist and intersectional feminist.

πŸ” One Problem – Social Media for Events

If your organization is venturing into the perplexing realm of social media coverage for events, you’re in for an adventure. Just as I need the right plan for a successful moonlit escapade, nonprofits need a clear strategy when it comes to event social media:

  1. Strategic Timing 🌠: Decide whether to post during or after the event. Consider the type of event, your audience’s preferences, and your goals. It’s like choosing the best path through the forestβ€”timing is key.
  2. Engage Your Audience 🀝: Seek approval from attendees before posting their photos or quotes. Honesty and respect are your best allies in building trust. Having attendees sign a waiver when they arrive can be a smart move to gain their consent.
  3. Craft a Social Media Policy πŸ“: Create guidelines for your team and volunteers, emphasizing the importance of respecting attendees’ privacy and ensuring a consistent brand voice.
  4. Plan Your Content πŸ’»: Prepare your posts in advance to ensure they align with your nonprofit’s mission and goals. It’s like packing the right gear for a long journey.
