Using social media tools such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and blogs to spread the word about your organization and the great work it does can be a powerful and cost-effective strategy for capturing the attention of potential and existing adopters and donors. If you aren't already using social media, here are three of the most compelling reasons to do so: The potential reach of social media is immense. In contrast to more conventional publicity vehicles, such as printed advertisements, nearly everyone has equal access to your message, and your audiences can easily and immediately share that message with their audiences, helping it go exponentially farther. Social media tools make it easier to see who you're reaching and easier to interact with your constituents, and thereby build and strengthen connections with them. Social media tools are free. There is no cost to sign up for accounts on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, or blogging sites such as WordPress or Blogger, which eliminates barriers to entry for cash -conscious organizations. Social -media - savvy volunteers can provide pro bono assistance in promoting your organization's work with these tools. Brevity is a virtue. In the social media realm, lengthy appeals can be counterproductive — usually a few words or lines, a brief story, a photo, or a video can be ideal for generating substantial interest in your efforts. There's no need to use every available social media platform — choose only the one(s) that best fit your organization's communication style. ASPCA Grant_ Publicity Guidelines Social media tools make it easy to share news about your ASPCA grant and the project it is supporting! Updates on your successes that engage readers, along with clear and colorful photos and videos that showcase those successes, will help your group to attract more followers.

Do not describe your organization or its mission. If you know estimated or actual costs for line items, be sure to include these costs in your description. If received, the ASPCA award would be used to purchase dog food for Ranger's Pantry. No money from donations is ever used for staff -time, facilities, or any other operating expenses. The facility where the food is stored and distributed is donated by All Around (6/5/2013) Kyle Belt Your ASPCA Grants Application Submission Seite 5 Storage. The City of Fayetteville Community Services Division staff administers the program. Because Ranger's Pantry is supported entirely by donations (both monetary and actual pet food), it does not have a budget. We can say that our most recent analysis found that during the first 5 months of our third year of operation our average expenditures were over $850 a month. This represents a 118% increase over the same time period from our second year of operation. We are confident that we will have success with this grant as we have previously utilized and been successful with an ASPCA grant. Over how many months do you estimate the requested amount would be used? (In whole months) Please enter either 6 or 12. 12 Grant Timeline and Evaluation Include your timeline for utilizing grant funds and explain how you will measure the success of the project. The requested grant funds would be utilized over a 12 month period. This is based on current purchasing patterns. Upon receiving the grant funds, the success of the project will be measured by tracking the amount (in pounds) of dog food purchased with the grant funds by separating the amount of dog food purchased with grant funds from other donations; the number of dogs receiving pet food; and the total amount of grant funded dog food given out during that time frame. Although — Ranger's Pantry serves both dogs and cats, there -is-a far greater and - more consistent demand for dog food.
