Objective

Objective

Identify best practices that Habitat for Humanity can use to reach and engage potential supporters in Clark and Floyd Counties.

To Do So We Focused On:

Three Focuses

  • Finding new donors and volunteers

  • Maintaining donor and volunteer relationships

  • Increasing brand awareness

Monthly Luncheon/Dinner House Party

Monthly Events

  • Invite current donors, and encourage them to bring friends/family

  • Board members and staff members present

  • Informative & interactive meeting
  • Discuss progress, goals, and appreciation

  • Host at build sites during the summer (neighborhood BBQ/ block party/ build day)

Why Monthly Gatherings?

Why?

  • Documented research indicated that that a there is common link between successful non-profits and regularly scheduled events (monthly).

  • These events are not elegant, but rather simple gatherings with snacks provided, that allow opportunity for donors to feel a part of the organization.

Changing Advertisement Strategies

Online Ads

How?

In order to reach new donor audiences, it is vital that Habitat adapts to the new frontier of advertisement, Online Applications.

Reaching audiences ages 20-35 requires a different approach in comparison to audiences ages 35-60.

Costs and Considerations

Music Applications:

  • Spotify: Advertisements can start at $250.
  • Pandora:
  • Visual - $5-7 per one thousand people
  • Audio - $8-$12

Entertainment Applications:

  • YouTube: $10 per day for local campaigns, current offer of $100 free credit when you spend $25 on video ads.
  • Facebook: Set your own budget by using the ad manager tool.
  • Instagram: Set your own budget, like Facebook
  • Twitter: The average cost for a Promoted tweet is around $1.35 per engagement

How To Make an Interactive Website
