I’ve just searched to see if there is a single list of social media sites that offer“
for good” programmes for charities or nonprofits. In other words, programmes that
give them free accounts, access to enhanced services, additional training or resources,
or some other benefit.

 

I can’t find such a list. If you know of one do please share a link to it below.

Meanwhile, here are the services I’m aware of.

 

I’m focusing only on social media, not all online fundraising tools, or others that
have social media application (so I don’t plan to cover offerings such as [Google Grants](https://fundraising.co.uk/2016/11/15/google-grants-for-charities/),
[Salesforce.com Foundation](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/http;//www.salesforcefoundation.org)
etc).

Google for Nonprofits (covering Google Grants, Checkout, Google Earth, Google Apps
etc)

Google Earth Outreach

YouTube Non-profit programme

What else is out there? Some of the above are only available to organisations in
particular countries, so if you do suggest another one, please indicate if there
are any geographical restrictions.

There’s a campaign underway to persuade Facebook to introduce a nonprofit programme
like Google Grants. The “Facebook Ads Grants Program” would give nonprofits some
free advertising on Facebook.

Appropriately enough the campaign, ‘Call to Action: Launch an Ads Grants Program
for Nonprofits’, is being propagaged via a Facebook page:

Nonprofit.orgs have recently produced a similar list: [Which Company is the Most Socially Responsible and Generous to Nonprofits: Facebook? Twitter? YouTube? LinkedIn? MySpace? Flickr? Google?](http://nonprofitorgs.wordpress.com/2010/05/24/which-company-is-the-most-socially-responsible-and-generous-to-nonprofits-facebook-twitter-youtube-linkedin-myspace-flickr-google/)
