Nonprofit Social Networking Survey Report Released

Posted on April 28, 2009 by Matthew Burnett

The Nonprofit Technology Network (NTEN), Common Knowledge, and ThePort Network, Inc. have just released the Nonprofit Social Network Survey Report, which is based on a survey of 929 nonprofits conducted in March 2009.  Highlights include:

  • 74.1% of respondents have a presence on Facebook, the most popular social network among nonprofits;
  • 31% of nonprofits have one or more social networking communities on their own web site;
  • 80% of respondents said that they commit at least one-quarter of a staff position to social networking; and
  • For the most part, social networks have not proven to be effective at fundraising (see the recent Washington Post article on this topic).

The full report can be downloaded here. [Note that downloading the report requires you provide your name, organization and email address.] -M
