The Good Work channel showcases briefs from nonprofit organisations around the world seeking creative support to increase the public’s engagement with the critical issues they address. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.

Charities and nonprofits can still submit briefs now. YouTube and Cannes Lions say that they plan to establish ‘Good Work’ as a platform to connect creatives with nonprofits on an ongoing basis. Anna Bateson, Director of YouTube Marketing, EMEA, said: “There are many not-for- profits lacking the resources to elevate their campaigns and reach new audiences and there are many creatives willing to dedicate their time to worthy causes without knowing where to begin. ‘Good Work’ can help bridge this gap. Using video in its many different forms is such a powerful way for non-profits to communicate. YouTube’s audience can also be a big part of the solution.” * **[JustTextGiving video competition offers £500 prize to charities](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/06/24/justtextgiving-video-competition-offers-500-prize-charities/)**( 24 June 2011) * **[A-T Society fundraising](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/09/01/society-fundraising/)**( 1 September 2011) * **[Shelter Scotland on Foursquare](https://fundraising.co.uk/2011/10/28/shelter-scotland-foursquare/)**( 28 October 2011)
