Just a quick note to say I'll be speaking as part of Social Actions' free "Using Facebook for Social Change" webinar on Thursday, along with Susan Gordon, the nonprofit coordinator of Causes, and moderated by Beth Pickard and David Karp of Firstgiving.

You're invited to join in a live and open text chat to discuss how you can use Facebook for social change. This is your opportunity to share experiences and ask questions about how people and orgs can do outreach, inspire action, and fund raise on the Facebook network.

The webinar is part of Social Actions' Change the Web Conversation Series.

I'll be talking about some of the successes the Genocide Intervention Network has had in using Facebook and Causes to engage its member base, increase the impact of advocacy campaigns, and raise (a little) money.

RSVP for the event, happening Thursday, Feb. 26, at 11 AM PST/2 PM EST. (Note that if you're not already a member of Social Actions, you'll need to sign up before you can RSVP, but it's free.)

I invite you to ask questions in the comments below ahead of time and I'll do my best to answer them during the event!
