Community Champions: |
WE SALUTE OUR GiVE! 2011 Citizen Champions
One goal of the Give! campaign is to enable participating non-profits to think creatively and strategically about marketing, branding and fundraising. To help catalyze such outside-the-box thinking on how non-profits can best utilize the Give! campaign to obtain cash and in-kind donations, effective media exposure as well as new board members and other volunteers, we have provided our non-profits with Community and Cyber Champions. These talented community volunteers invest 4 to 6 hours each month to help our non-profits develop sound strategies to take advantage of the platform Give! provides.

Not that you shouldn’t support the Diabetes Community Center with your time and dollars anyway, but look at them tearing it up on FOX21! They’re one of the smallest, newest nonprofits featured in Give! this year, but they definitely know how to make an impact. Great job, guys!
