Jasmine,
We're thrilled to have you join us. Here are a few tips to get you started:
Complete Your Profile:
Take a moment to review your profile and add a profile picture. This simple step significantly increases the chances of people seeing your posts.
Share Valuable Information:
Members can post information relevant to nonprofits, civic organizations, and the general public. Posting your events early helps avoid scheduling conflicts and allows us to promote them in our biweekly alerts. Your posts are instantly visible to over 1400 members. Additionally, we share event notices with over 10,000 people via social media every Monday and Friday.
Keep it Professional:
Please note that business promotions, politically charged content, and religious posts are not allowed.
Posting Tips:
Your Built-in Blog:
Joining GNH Community gives you a free blog! Use this space to share your thoughts, opinions, or even articles you've written elsewhere. You can also share resources, job announcements, or non-time-sensitive information. Use tags (keywords) to help people find your posts easily. To promote your organization's blog or one related to your field, simply post the title, a short teaser, and a link back to the full post. Blog posts are shared every Wednesday.
Sharing Videos and Pictures:
Videos are a powerful communication tool! Share promotional videos about your organization, educational content, or public service announcements. Every Tuesday, we feature a video on our homepage and share it with our social media followers. Browse existing videos for inspiration. You can create a video on YouTube or Vimeo and share it through a link on the GNH Community videos page. With a few weeks' notice, we can try to schedule your featured video to coincide with a specific event or campaign.
For pictures, albums are the way to go! Use them to tell a story, showcase your impact, or document progress. We'd be happy to feature your album if you let us know when you create it.
