One Nonprofit Organization Can Win a $25,000 Social Media Makeover

“Social media is a powerful communications medium that is underutilized, particularly by non-profit organizations lacking the resources to get up the rapidly evolving learning curve,” said Marcelle Turner, CEO of MindComet. “We launched CommuniCause to raise awareness for deserving organizations and get help selecting a pro-bono project, but quickly realized the campaign wasn’t just about picking a winner. Every participating organization is benefitting by learning how to use social media tools to increase visibility and rally support.” The New York Times mentioned CommuniCause in a recent story on how charities are leveraging the internet for fundraising.
