7 Deadly Nonprofit Copywriting Sins webinar sept 2013Marlene Oliveira
www.moflow.ca
Nonprofit copywriting webinar delivered with Artez Interactive in September 2013.
For nonprofits, writing excellent copy is important because our content needs to inform, motivate and inspire. So if we know that great content is critical for nonprofits, why are so many organizations making the same messaging mistakes?
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
Why nonprofits can’t waste time and effort on boring or ineffective content.
The seven deadly copywriting and messaging mistakes that are being made by too many nonprofit organizations.
How to avoid these mistakes and write excellent, original content that inspires.
Writing original, inspiring content for your nonprofit takes thought and planning, but it is possible!

Beyond the First Click: How today’s volunteers build power for movements and ...MobLab
If movements and organizations invest in and cultivate supporters who are doing substantial and meaningful work, then does their reach, impact and odds of success increase?
That’s the question we set out to explore.
We wanted to look under the hood of organizations doing a great job engaging top-tier supporters and volunteer leaders. These organizations are creating opportunities for supporters and volunteers to make decisions and act on behalf of the organisation.
We sought to uncover insights, patterns and best practices that we could share with our colleagues in the nonprofit sector.
We interviewed 35 organizations and experts in eight countries. Beyond the First Click is a project of Capulet, Change.org and the Mobilisation Lab at Greenpeace.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

very useful for WaterAid, having
access to all the seminars and

Lisa Martin, senior media officer, WaterAid

charities’ communications will
take place in the context of an
integrated brand and
organisational framework.
5. “
CharityComms has been an
excellent resource for me
personally, as part of a relatively
small comms teams it’s been great
to keep up to date with what’s
going on in the sector, hear from
other charities and make use of
what’s on the website. It’s definitely
helped us shape our own strategy
and approaches.”
Hannah Chambers, marketing and
communications manager, Royal Parks

“
Running a tiny organisation means making
every penny count… I don’t think I’ve ever
left a CharityComms event without either a
brand new idea to try out straightaway, or a
set of questions to ask back at base.”
Liz O’Neill, GM Freeze
7. Key achievements 2016-17: membership
“
CharityComms membership allows me and
the wider team the opportunity to learn
from other organisations, regardless of their

CharityComms always put on the best
conferences. They are so well organised

Fran Swaine, digital marketing consultant.

results – I have nothing but praise!”
Ella Dove, freelance journalist
14. The mentoring scheme has
been really important at this
early point in my marketing
career…my mentor had been
at Macmillan for an impressive
stretch and brought a great
deal of insight and experience
to our meetings…getting an
independent view on a project
can really add value or
something you’d just never
thought of before.”
Kate Palmer, brand marketing
manager, The Floating Cinema
CharityComms’ ‘Stepping into
Leadership’ course has been
one of the most helpful things
career-wise I have ever done.”
Michelle Saxby, head of global
PR and media, Shelterbox.
“ “
15. CharityComms conferences offer
an opportunity to step back from
the day to day and reflect on
new comms approaches and
opportunities…it’s great to share
challenges and experiences
with colleagues, helping to
stretch ourselves, build comms
skills and improve the way we
communicate with our members
and other audiences.”
Jane Hughes, deputy director of
communications and campaigns,
Royal College of Nursing
Being a corporate member of
CharityComms has been
fantastic for our cooperative.
We’ve had many referrals from
our listing on the supplier
directory, giving us the
opportunity to work on brilliant
projects for game-changing
organisations. Thank you
CharityComms.”

Editor's Notes
The drop in profit as a result of increased staffing costs required to assist the business growth.
Our cash reserves stand at £468,447, giving us the opportunity to invest in products and services for our members in the year ahead.
Our renewal rate is 88% for large organisational members and 85% for smaller organisational members.
AskCharity is a free service designed to help journalists and charities work together. Journalists can use it to find case studies, spokespeople and information from a wide range of charities. Charities can use it to build their media contacts and coverage.
Building on our strong financial performance over the past few years, CharityComms is investing some of the cumulative profit we’ve built up back into our products and services.
