Back in April , we introduced you to another great non-profit resource: our YouTube Nonprofit Program . Since then, thousands of you -- from the Smithsonian Museum and the Alliance for Climate Protection to the New York Public Library and the Children's Defense Fund -- have joined the program and started using YouTube to raise awareness about important issues, fundraise for causes, and engage with supporters. We still get a lot of questions, however, about how organizations can best leverage YouTube to spread their messages. To help answer those questions, we've created tip sheets specifically for non-profits in mind. Whether you're operating on a shoestring budget , looking to launch a video campaign , or just need some basic pointers , we've got you covered. You can access them from our YouTube Nonprofit Program page . In addition, we've posted the first in what we hope is a series of YouTube non-profit case studies. Our first video features Tim Fullerton , the Online Communications Manager at Oxfam America, who discusses how Oxfam used YouTube to start a fruitful discussion with Starbucks about fair wages for Ethiopian coffee farmers. If your organization is using YouTube in a particularly compelling or unique way, please let us know -- our next video could be about your work! And if you're looking for a little more inspiration, you can always visit the YouTube AgentChange channel , which features monthly playlists of our most interesting non-profit content. Finally, we always welcome feedback. If there are other things you think we could do to help non-profits create meaningful social change through YouTube, please email agentchange@youtube.com .Posted by Ramya, YouTube Team
