Maria is quite a student. She hopes “to work in nonprofit administration, foundations or the government” and is “particularly interested in working for educational, cultural or religious organizations.” And, you know I’m going to be happy to read of a student interested in non-profit PR.

Check out her post. I suggested she also look in on Camp ASCCA’s blogging efforts as another example of cost efficient PR for non-profits.

Maria Sanchez: Cost Efficient PR for Nonprofits

In a world where everyone is looking for the next big thing, and where many people are willing pay the price for it, it is a wonder how something so simple and cheap is the new phenomenom.

Although blogs are being created daily by professionals and average Joe’s alike, I have chosen to research the effect that blogging has had on the nonprofit sector. An article on techsoup.com gives ten reasons why blogging is important in the nonprofit world today. It points out that “updating is easy” and that “blogs provide a more personal communication vehicle.” I agree that it is important for nonprofits and those interested in them to tap into this new technological resource in order to stay current with our business-focused society.
