In a recent blog post about the impact of social media on the nonprofit sector, Holly wrote, “Social media is about relationships. At its core, nonprofit work is also about relationships. We can use these tools to build real relationships in a way that broadcast tools like email, direct mail, and advertising do not.”
If you work with a faith-based organization, you’d probably agree that building relationships is at the heart of what you do. Used properly, social media would seem a natural fit for religious communities, but they’re often challenged in embracing technology change. We’ll be addressing this issue at our upcoming webinar, “Social Media for Faith-based Communities”.
