Connecting Community .... BEST WEBSITES


How great are these top web sites for non profits?
Occasionally I just have to pass on some great ideas like these fantastic sites - as profiled on Squidoo.
59 Smartest Orgs Online http://www.squidoo.com/org20
Even with limited budgets we can all apply some of these great ideas....
* worldchanging shows how small grassroots campaigns can make big change happen
* moveon offers an amusing Obama ad with an insight into how to use Chip-In - a smart + easy way to encourage online donations
* kiva illustrates the power of personal connection in sponsorship / micro finance
* coalition against hunger real customer service to NYC's hungry + homeless with an interactive map of services
* bridges to hope shows how recipients of services can be your best advocates in lobbying for change
to name but a few... you can find the links for all of these and more at www.squidoo.com

And I would like to nominate a couple of locals:

www.streetsmartaustralia.org
- for smart use of a range of online media AND congratulations on the new hotel based campaign!
www.prostate.org - for getting men to see their doctors (no easy task!) as well as fresh clear communications and lots of great events
www.ovca.org.au - for launching Resilience (a great new resource for women with ovarian cancer) and for scoring media including a Breakfast TV interview!!

And a thought for the day....

Be brave!
