Wishing all the best to those working for NGOs and local partners affected by the immediate pause of USAID funding by the Trump administration. Inconsequential in the grand scheme, but we just has some work cancelled as a result. The client described the action as feeling like the 'nuclear option'.
Good morning to all the charities and a charity folk new to BSky this week! I'm interested to know what your social strategy for 2025 is going to be with regard to this network, and X? Where are you seeing the most positive engagement?
It's Big Give Christmas Challenge day! Good luck to everyone taking part this year. 🚨 Remember to double check your donation links are all working, especially if you've promoted your own website as a funnel. 🚨

If you really work on how your story leads to your message, you can break some of the 'rules' of content. This totally applies to charities and non-profits. Arguably far more so than automotive brands. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQX-...

Just discovered a nice Bsky shortcut for those managing multiple accounts (personal and organisational for example). Instead of going to settings to switch account, long-tap you profile pic in the bottom right of the app and your other accounts become selectable.
Am looking for your Bluesky success stories. Has your charity: - grown lots of followers fast? - connected with new peers or communities or decision markers? - had a viral success? - had greater engagement than the other place? Or is the jury still out? Keen to hear how it is going so far.
What do you think is the biggest thing standing in the way of more tech sector folks joining non-profit boards? I'd love to hear what you all think as we shape our Digital Trustees programme for 2025. PS we have a wee 60min online matchmaking session on 10 Dec thirdsectorlab.co.uk/digital-trus...

Morning all! Lovely to connect with so many new faces here over the weekend. 🤩 This week we're helping one of our UK charity clients to integrate and showcase episodes of their podcast hosted with Kajabi on their WordPress website. 💪 FYI, we also polish and edit podcasts for charities too! 🎙️
Start the week the right way. Want to make online meetings more accessible and inclusive for those of us who are deaf or have hearing loss? Here's something to help. Mute when not speaking and only one person speaking at a time are the biggies. More tips here 👇 rnid.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Has your charity set up camp here? I've only found a handful of UK non-profits with accounts so far. Let me know if you know of others or your organisation joins. 24 to date.... One hospice. No CVS. No councils. go.bsky.app/UVMCfpi
Quick bio: Humaniti Studio is your charity's very own creative and web department. We've worked in creative comms and digital, in and around the charity sector, for well over 20 yrs. Personally, I headed up comms for an international development NGO before making a break for freedom in 2012.
Hello charity world! Given how many third-sector folks seem to be congregating here, I though I'd spin up a specific account for the studio. My personal account (@nickwilmot.com) will be more technical in focus, while this one will be more relevant to the sector I've served for 20+ years.
