Nonprofit Video + Volunteer Opportunities = New YouTube Program! |
Posted by Jordan Viator at Jun 22, 2009 10:41 AM CDT Categories: NPtech , Social Media , Volunteerism |
YouTube raised the question today: “Are you a nonprofit who needs help creating great video for your causes?” And with the exception of nonprofits lucky enough to have an in-house videographer, of which are few and far between, the answer to this question is more often than now “Yes”.
And with that common response in mind, YouTube officially rolled out its new YouTube Video Volunteers program today.
In short, this new program allows nonprofit organizations to post video volunteer opportunities on one of the three sites including idealist.org, serve.org and Volunteer Match using the words “video volunteer” in postings. In turn, the opportunities for video help will automatically show up in the All for Good feed on YouTube’s Video Volunteers page, in an effort to All for Good’s mission of allowing citizens to take small actions to add up to a big difference a reality.
Why I dig this new program…

I can’t wait to see how nonprofits start using this new tool to their benefit. For any and all nonprofits that start posting opportunities and engaging with volunteers for help with video, please come back and share your experiences and success stories here! I'd love to feature some ways nonprofits find this program useful going forward.
Huge props YouTube and Ramya for the great work to help positively impact the nonprofit community! And here's a short video with more information about the program for those of you interested in learning more:
