Millennials

The United Church of Christ, Social Media, and Connecting with a Younger Audience: A Case Study (Part I)

While taking the Millennials Changing America Tour through the New York tri-state area, I was fortunate to be able to visit my mother in Milford, Connecticut on Sunday morning. We attended service at the United Church of Christ (UCC), a mainline Protestant Christian church that has outwardly liberal views of social justice issues.

Shifting The Conversation: The Anti-Institutional Giving Pool

What we know as an organization-led realm is in an interesting state of flux.

This is a subject I have a professional interest in, and hope to dissect in great detail over the course of the Millennials Changing America Tour. I'll be blogging some of my findings here, and much of the concentration of my NetSquared coverage of the tour will focus on this shift.  

We spend much of our time trying to connect the nonprofit (and the nonprofit minded) with the technologies necessary for the advancement of institutional altruism. However, we spend relatively little time looking at how the technologies necessary for advancement are changing the landscape of the nonprofit realm.

Is Creating A Millennial-Staffed, In-House Think Tank Possible?

A post or two back, I suggested ways to put your intern(s) to work that millennials in their position might find challenging, exciting, and informative, and that you might find useful for your organization. Thanks to those who commented and emailed regarding the topic, I am back with a suggestion in a similar vein: Consider creating an in-house think-tank/workshop where new, millennial-style tech and outreach methodologies can be studied, researched, and reported on for consideration by your organization.
