During our recent Webinar we received a few questions about how non-profits can make use of social media tools. I admit we didn't do the best job answering this question and some of you called us on it. Perhaps it's because Dow Jones (and perhaps Forrester) don't have too many clients in the non-profits space so our personal experiences don't go in that direction.
I mentioned during the Webinar, that I personally volunteer (with the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate) and we make use of the Web as a way to get our message out, to raise funds and to get volunteers. These are obvious examples.
But I'm sure others have better ones. I found this blog and will be spending time reading it.

Do other people have examples of how non-profits and social media have found happy marriages.

hello,
Thanks for mentioning my blog. I cover that topic - you'll find lots of links to other resources on nonprofits and tech on my blog.
stop by and let me know if you're looking for some specific information .
PS .. I have a side interest in metrics and ROI and nonprofits/social media. I'm doing a panel on this topic at the NTC - and hope to generate some case studies.
