Maui County’s Department of Housing and Human Concerns, Volunteer Center, is partnering with Miller Media Management to host a free online workshop for local nonprofits to explore ways to promote volunteer opportunities using social media.
“Five Easy Ways to Promote Volunteer Opportunities Using Social Media” will be held from 9-11 a.m. on Thursday, February 24. To register for the interactive and informative workshop, go to http://bit.ly/HandsOnMaui-social
Organizers say promoting volunteer opportunities is different in 2022. Social marketing is now a key strategy for recruiting, retaining and recognizing volunteers. How can nonprofits use tools like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube to attract more volunteers and maximize their impact? This training teaches simple strategies for getting volunteer opportunities noticed on social media.
“The benefits of social media go beyond likes, shares and followers. They translate into real-world change like more volunteers and donors,” said Danielle Miller, owner of Miller Media Management.
In this virtual training, participants will learn which social media platforms have the greatest impact, how to create content that grabs people’s attention, which weekly activities to prioritize, and where to find resources and help.
Danielle Miller was an EdVenture instructor at UH-Maui College. She has been a speaker at WedTech, The Savvy Experience and ACM West. His articles and presentations have been mentioned by Hubspot, Social Media Today and Social Media Examiner.
The County of Maui Volunteer Center directs, connects and mobilizes volunteers and voluntary agencies to contribute to a better life on Maui.
