Now that social media channels are a part of the fabric of how we communicate, nonprofits are looking beyond shiny social tools to understand the value of community. Learn strategies from Megan Keane for setting up organizational processes to create a culture of engagement at your organization and find quantifiable ways community can contribute to your mission and impact.
Maybe your organization has used texting since we were playing Snake on our phones. Or maybe you’re just now struggling with how to start an SMS program and integrate it with your website, social media, and app strategy. This session with Sam McKelvie will help nonprofits at any level think about innovative ways that SMS can advance their organization’s mission and how to overcome common obstacles to growing a mobile program. We’ll launch in to the best use cases for engaging supporters/donors and review tactics for using SMS to better reach the populations that your organization serves. This interactive session will also give you a chance to develop new ideas for acquiring subscribers and expanding their interaction with your nonprofit.
Explore the generational, cultural, and technological revolution that's changing our world and learn tactical skills that will increase the effectiveness and sustainability of your fundraising strategies. Roderick Campbell, one of Silicon Valley's brightest social-impact entrepreneurs, will be your unpredictable and amusing guide.
In an increasingly noisy world, we all face a big challenge in making sure our messages are clearly heard. In this session, Anita Jackson talked about how to effectively use social media strategies to complement your movement building work. She talked about which tools help you reach your goals, how to find the audiences you seek, and how to leverage your limited capacity for the greatest impact.
Did you know that 8 out of 10 donors say that online reviews influence their giving decision? If you are a great nonprofit waiting to be discovered, build social proof around it by putting it in front of the right early supporters and create marketing campaigns designed to be shareable. Use it to find new supporters and remind existing supporters why they made a smart choice. In the age of the social web, social proof is the new marketing.
Sending a text message is the easiest way for new supporters to connect with your cause. Nick Allen talked about how to maximize mobile donations and how mobile activist networks run by organizations like the Humane Society and No Kid Hungry are recruiting new supporters. Nick also shared the first US test of a mobile strategy that’s recruited thousands of new monthly donors in the UK by inviting people to send a text message for info, triggering a phone call from the nonprofit.
We’ve all felt the emotional pull of a great video. Videos can convey messages, emotions and impact in seconds. Now, with social media platforms seamlessly integrating video, it’s more important than ever for nonprofits to understand how to leverage this powerful tool. In this very tactical session, Michael Hoffman of See3 Communications shared the best practices for incorporating video into your communications strategy and across social media platforms, with a focus on how it can be used to help make an impact on your year-end fundraising.

Cultivating community is a key way to keep a group in engaged around an idea or cause. In this session Regina Walton talked about building and growing community in a group that meets in person around a central idea: technology for social good. You'll learn about SFTech4Good, the largest of the many worldwide Netsquared groups and NTEN 501 Tech Clubs, and how they keep their member count growing, keep events fresh, and the tools they use to effectively communicate with their large and growing group.
You see the potential that Facebook offers for engaging supporters and creating more exposure for your nonprofit. But with declining reach, and more competition in the newsfeed, reaching your supporters is more challenging than ever before. This presentation from John Haydon will show you innovative ways to get more engagement on Facebook, from high-quality fans.
140 characters and a constant feed can seem like a waste of time. But, if you know how to navigate the good from the stuff that’s for the birds, you can definitely find a pipeline. Stephanie St Martin showed #SM4NP Boston how to use tools like Twitter lists, find influencers, and find potential volunteers from those tweeting.
Creating a strategy for using social media is no longer optional for nonprofits. Social media tools include a fast-changing and constantly growing collection of web-based and mobile technologies. These tools turn formerly broadcast and one-way messages into an interactive conversation and can be hugely effective for social change organizations. In this session, Julia Campbell outlined the 11 steps that your organization can take to create a strategy and plan for your social media efforts. A little planning goes a long way!
Online engagement campaigns are a test for both the organization and its fans, a learning moment, and a check/balance of how you are crafting meaningful ties with your stakeholders. In this session at #SM4NP Boston, Debra Askanase profiled successful online engagement campaigns, breaking down the essential ingredients of preparation, design, execution and measurement.
Crowd-funding for #GivingTuesday, the global day of giving back to launch the holiday season, has fast become a cornerstone of fundraising. These slides from a #SM4NP webinar with Leo Buc and Bre DiGiammarino will give you practical and tactical resources for making it a success.
The data doesn’t lie, the mobile era is upon us. But how do you go beyond the data to make mobile work for your nonprofit? Learn from Ethan Kearns of the Nature Conservancy about many of the real life examples of mobile adoption and understand specific ways to go beyond the surface level statistics to fully grasp the mobile potential.
Stories have the power to spark movements, raise armies of volunteers, and even change the world. But stories with impact don’t just happen—they require intention and heart. So once you have the right story, how can you make the most of it across social media?
In this 60 minute webinar with Jereme Bivins of The Rockefeller Foundation and Kimaya Dixit of Hattaway Communications, we explored how to use your organization’s best stories across channels for better outreach, fundraising, and impact reporting.
Connections matter. Often it is easiest to connect with other people like us, but being able to build relationships across differences and learn from different perspectives is powerful. Discover how to use Twitter chats (or any social platform) to cultivate conversations which amplify your message and increase impact for your constituents. Dorothy Ponton gave this presentation at #SM4NP Silicon Valley.
Do you ever feel like messaging decisions are made in a vacuum at your organization? Some simple testing can make the difference in connecting with your target audience. Learn from Marcia Silva how the Second Harvest Food Bank leveraged a small budget on Facebook Ads to test branding elements, as well as how the data helped them tighten their 2015 childhood hunger messages and improve campaign results.
You’ve heard it over and over again: storytelling gets you more donations. It’s actually easier than you think to create a compelling story. Fairy tales, fireside stories, and your favorite Hollywood movies all follow the tried and true storylines every popular story follows. In this session, Rob Wu, CEO of CauseVox, walked through three storylines that you can use for nonprofit fundraising, and to help you understand how to repurpose storylines for your nonprofit at #SM4NP Silicon Valley.
While content creation is a top priority for most nonprofits, a huge challenge is distribution. When thinking about how to get your amazing content beyond your existing network, consider this: the top 5% of supporters in your CRM, on average, have a reach 200 times greater than your entire email file. These social media influencers not only help extend the reach of your amazing content, but expose more people to your good work. Cheryl Contee, CEO of Fission and Co-Founder of Attentive.ly, explored how to identify your influencers, the best sharable content and how to get them talking about your campaigns at #SM4NP Silicon Valley.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
