June 2012 Social Media Club Austin Meeting #SMCA

Join #SMCA for our June Panel on NonProfits Making the Most of Social Media, held at our home at KLRU in the Historic Austin City Limits Soundstage.
An astonishing 97% of nonprofits are using social media, far surpassing even the business world. Operating on a shoestring budget, nonprofits are the creative experimenters of social networks - using them to spur activism, fundraise, tell their story, recruit donors and volunteers, and more.
In this June 19 panel, we'll hear from local cutting-edge NPOs… Show more about their successes and learning experiences with social media. Our panelists will share how they've used different social media channels to tell their stories and earn the trust of supporters, all while avoiding the perils of donor fatigue. They'll also tackle the more complex issues of developing a social media strategy and reporting ROI to higher-ups in their organization.
Our panelists are Shane Guiter of KLRU, Rodney Gibbs of the Texas Tribune, Sara Peralta of the Capital Area Food Back of Texas, Jan Gunter of the Ronald McDonald House and Matt Glazer of Progress Texas . Moderator is David Neff, author of " The Future of Nonprofits " and senior consultant at Ant's Eye View .
Join us at 6:00 p.m. for pizza, networking and mingling. Our panel discussion starts at 6:30. We'll also announce which local NPO will receive SMCAustin's pro bono help over the next 6 months.
Hope to see you on the 19th!
