Promoting a non-profit through social media is like any other business, you need to show up where your audience is hanging out. In this scenario, my question would be unnoticed by who? If it was donors, you want to capitalize on platforms like LinkedIn, if it's volunteers, it could be Facebook or Instagram, etc...once you determine who you want to notice you, you can tailor a strategy around it. Case studies are amazing for donors but may not be as interesting for someone looking to volunteer. Someone who wants to volunteer will want to see behind-the-scenes testimonials and photos of the opportunity in action. Creating a visibility strategy needs to be tailored to the audience.

Leverage social media to spotlight your non-profit’s impact. Share compelling success stories, powerful visuals, and behind-the-scenes content to build emotional connections. Engage with your audience through interactive posts, live Q&A sessions, and community challenges. Utilize targeted hashtags and collaborate with influencers to expand reach. Optimize short-form videos and infographics for virality. Encourage supporters to share testimonials and user-generated content. A data-driven strategy—tracking engagement, refining messaging, and amplifying success—ensures sustained visibility, fostering greater support, funding, and meaningful collaborations for long-term growth.

Leverage social media to amplify your nonprofit’s success by showcasing impactful stories, engaging visuals, and compelling testimonials that highlight your mission. Use a multi-platform approach, optimizing content for each channel—short videos for TikTok, in-depth posts on LinkedIn, and eye-catching graphics on Instagram.

Consistently track performance metrics to refine your strategy, ensuring maximum visibility and engagement for sustained impact.

Besides Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc. there are multiple sites that can be used to help your group. 1st, have your group determine its goals and the audience it wants to reach to determine what site is best for you. Some sites are for entertainment, some are professional, so make sure the site allows you to communicate how you want to. Also make sure that the site does not conflict with your group’s goals or objectives. Next make sure the site allows interaction with others, such as comment fields, message boards, etc. that will allow people to contribute and discuss things. Try to select a site that also allows you to track metrics such as Constant Contact so you can see if the media you are using is effective.
