Nonprofits have an entire day set aside for them as the Barcamp model takes over this sector and merges Web2.0 with the 501(c)(3) specialists. Does all those letters/numbers jumbled up confuse you? No worries, tomorrow's event will be the convergence of the tech community, fundraisers, nonprofits, foundations, and various other donors into a community driven event called ActionCampSA: Mission Driven.
ActionCamp is a day that the unconference model is introduced to nonprofits with the hopes of building a think tank community of highly educated, passionate, socially aware people. The camp model has been used in a variety of scenarios from Barcamps, Podcamps, FreelanceCamp, and the recently TweetCamp in the Alamo City.
ActionCamp will offer non-profits the opportunity to re-evaulate their mission and their goals and how they are achieving them. Disucssions on proper grant writing and research will be discussed along with outreach possibilities utilizing new media to remain relevant.
These are just some of the topics that will be covered at this FREE event:
- development of social technology strategies
- understanding community management
- intro to understanding basics of podcasting - anyone can do it with free tools
- incorporating a brand evangelist into your office culture
- developing relevant messages to share with your community
- grant writing and web 2.0 fundraising ideas
- collaboration, think of yourselves as part of a community, not a single entity
- online ettiquette, it's not what you think
A huge thanks to all of our sponsors who were able to make this possible. Without their support and the support of all of our local community events like this would not have come to San Antonio.
