On Your Feet Project started its Volunteer Boston blog almost a year ago. The goal of our organization is to attract people aged 18 to 34 to volunteering who are not currently volunteering... so writing just about running a non-profit or volunteer opportunities wasn't going to be enough. Instead, we blog about all kinds of things ranging from international news to local events or ways to be green. Basically we provide a smattering of information that tends to trend towards "how you can do good." This allows us to draw in that audience we're looking for. So far we've recruited a few new board members through the blog, but more importantly become regular reading material that serves to remind us all that we're not passive bystanders, we can be active members of society.

Thanks for finding me, Dana! I’m excited to have you join the conversation 🙂

What made you start blogging? What has been the biggest challenge or the biggest surprise?

Looking forward to getting to know you!

I was looking for information about the usefulness of blogs to non-profits. Your blog looks like it is brimming with the content I was looking for.

Thanks!

Thanks, Marsha! I’m happy to include it and enjoy staying tuned to what you all are up to!

Hi Alyssa- I follow you on Twitter! I’m excited to watch your blog grow and see how it helps the Womens Museum’s outreach and communications, especially as far as what feedback/participation there is from the community online. Thanks for mentioning it on the blog for the other readers!

Hey Amy! I hope all is well in London! The Women’s Museum just launched our blog last Friday at thewomensmuseum.blogspot.com. Myself (the marketing assistant), our registrar and our membership manager will all be contributing as we give the readers a behind-the-scenes look into the Museum.

The blog is the anchor of our other social media, which are currently Facebook and Twitter. The blog doesn’t exist to drive donations but to increase awareness – we’re a national history museum but awareness is limited to the Dallas/Forth Worth area.

Dear Amy,
thank you for mentioning DFW. I am still a novice at the blogging thing. I will continue to improve, but getting a kudo from you is really exciting!

Crystal,

Thanks so much for sharing! I really love the mcf blog; it should have been on the list! Glad that other readers can see your comment and check out the blog as well.
