Ever wanted to …
· Grow your email list of supporters – including donors, volunteers and
others who will help your nonprofit?
· Mobilize an army of e-activists to win advocacy victories for your
cause (while building your own army)?
· Drive a ton of “do-gooders” to your website? Or to vote for you in a
contest? Right now?
Join Clint O’Brien, VP of Nonprofit Services for a “Care2 101”
webinar to learn about some of the most popular ways that organizations
like yours are connecting with Care2’s 13 million members.
Care2 is social action network of more than 13 million civically
engaged people who want to make a difference by supporting the issues
and causes they care about. Founded in 1998, Care2 has helped more than
500 nonprofits and their agency partners to conduct targeted
recruitment of high quality online supporters and prospective donors.
Care2 members donate many millions of dollars to charity and help
nonprofits win hundreds of major advocacy victories for important
causes every year -- locally, nationally and internationally.
