We will be using our participation in the Wikimedia fundraiser to promote our social media presence and vice versa, but I'm not sure training from Third Sector is going to help. ;-)

Dear Gordon,
So which charities have really increased donations through social media? And how did they go about it?
Join the hundreds of charity professionals already confirmed for Third Sector's Driving Donations Through Social Media Online Masterclasses to hear the secrets behind the most lucrative charity social media case studies of 2011, such as:
The Big March - Beatbullying - increased website traffic by 3000%The Battle of Britain - RAF Benevolent Fund - doubled onlinedonations
Baby Joey Appeal - Childs i Foundation - raised £10,000 on day 1iPhone app - BackCare - was the most downloaded charity appPlus more - view the full speaker list @ www.donationsthroughsocialmedia.com
Driving Donations Through Social Media
Streamed live to your desk on 1st, 3rd and 8th November 2011
At a time when social media offers more potential to charities than ever, these masterclasses are designed to give you cost-effective access to information that will help your charity unlock the full donation-driving power of sites like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Full details of the masterclasses can be found atwww.donationsthroughsocialmedia.com
Sharon Williams, who attended last year said; "the format was great and much easier than attending a physical event. Even though we were doing some stuff with social media before, the case studies gave me loads of ideas that are already generating demonstrably more funds for our charity."
I hope that you can take part. If you have any questions at all about what's involved, please feel to contact me on the details below.
Best Wishes,
