#PRStudChat Update on the June ‘Social Good’ Session
We’re gearing up for a dynamic #PRStudChat discussion on June 15th at 8:30 p.m. ET, focusing on the topic of Social Good. Our panel of special guests will share their insights with the community and demonstrate how non-profits are making a difference through their social interactions. The panel members include: Shonali Burke (@shonali), Heather Whaling (@prtini) and Melissa Jones (@MelissaAJones), all communications professionals, working with non-profit organizations from awareness to fundraising initiatives.
Here are a few of the questions that we will be asking our panelists and discussing with the community on the 15th:
Q1. What are some of the best ways to overcome “donor fatigue”?
Q2. What motivates supporters choose to donate to a particular organization?
Q3. What social media channel has been most effective for your organization (or, a nonprofit you have worked with)? Why?
Q4. What suggestions do you have for businesses looking to partner with nonprofits?
Q5: #PRStudChat PSA Opportunity – What handle or hashtag would you like to share with the community?
Q6. What are some of the most creative uses of social media you have seen from a nonprofit?
Q7. How has social media allowed you to personalize your interactions with potential supporters?
Q8. What advice would you give to students about getting involved in fundraising or supporting the initiatives of a non-profit?
We hope you will join us on June 15th at 8:30 p.m. ET to discuss Social Good and to chat with our panel of special guests. Of course, if you have any questions you would like to ask the panel, please feel free to post them in our LinkedIn Discussion Group. Hope to “see” you on the 15th!
A Little More About PRStudChat:
It began with a simple question asked by Angela Hernandez, then President of PRSSA at Central Michigan University (CMU). “Is PR Right for me?” A follow up blog post by PR 2.0 expert Deirdre Breakenridge inspired a series of direct messages on Twitter between Breakenridge and fellow PR industry pro, Valerie Simon. This was an important question and one that should be explored beyond one student or one blog post. Why not build a community to help students across the country, and even the globe, learn from the experience and perspective of industry professionals… A community where everyone can learn and grow together.

Thank you Shonali! We’re really excited about this session and think you will provide our community with some excellent insight. I think the #bluekey campaign is a great example of a non profit making a difference through their social interactions. I’m really looking forward to Wednesday night.
