Non Profits and Social Media

The Center for Nonprofit Management at Robert Morris University has been doing a biannual survey of nonprofit technology benchmarks for its regional nonprofits for the past ten years.

A few highlights related to social media:
  • 23% use social networking sites, but 68% of those use them "rarely"
  • 20% use blogs, but 64% of those use them "rarely"
  • 11% use RSS feeds
  • 11% use podcasting

    My personal feeling on Social Media is it is not just for larger national organizations. Smaller non profits can have a web presence with the big boys if they implement an active social media optimization plan... and all the tools are free.
