“What a great video.
It's very inspiring & encouraging to see
exactly how our donations are being spent
and to see that it has a direct impact on
someone's life.
Thanks for creating this video. Can't wait to
see the next one!”

Many charities have woken up to the power of digital storytelling
They’re actively using social media to tell their stories
Transparency is a key theme – people want to know where their money goes
Focus on demonstrating impact using digital media
The usual social media rules apply – empower sharing, conversations, feedback
Don’t forget to say thanks
