You actually make a good point. Nonprofits have to work to stay relevant and up to date with what's "popular". Trends come and go so quickly with the internet that it can actually be a real struggle to keep charities in the forefront of the public mind.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, here's a video of some UCA fraternity boys doing the Harlem Shake in the name of "Greek Unity". I've watched it about 16 times since Monday.

(Jordan King) A Harlem Shake video by a nonprofit is a brilliant idea - sort of a "jump on a bandwagon to get people on your bandwagon" move. I thought it was interesting that Jill Imboden said that Twitter is a challenge for Bethlehem House, but it's great that the nonprofit is working on expanding onto the relatively new social network. I would recommend Grovo (http://www.grovo.com/welcome/3) to anyone or any nonprofit trying to stay relevant and up-to-date on popular online media.
ReplyDeleteI was equally surprised that Twitter is so difficult for people to lay hold of. Makes me feel like I'm missing something--like maybe I'm not using twitter correctly...?
ReplyDeleteWill check out your rec about Grovo as I do ALL of your recs! You should definitely have a website where you just share info like this with the world...you're such an information hub!!!
