Show your boss these social media statistics

I found this on Howard Lake’s UK fundraising website, and it makes me happy to see so many people online and connecting. This is certainly a case for your cause to be using social media. Whether it’s SecondLife, SMS fundraising, Facebook, e-newsletters, or Twitter, if this is where people are, this is where you can fundraise.

Wouldn’t it be interesting to see a similar running tally of how much money is raised every second worldwide by letter appeals, events, corporate sponsorships, foundation grants, individual gifts, major gifts, etc?

Have you ever used second life to fundraise?

Have you ever used facebook to fundraise? What were your results?
