Pinning Goodness on Pinterest

 

Pinterest offers non-profits a way to change the conversation. It lets them share information and showcase what they’re doing. It also gives them a more intimate connection to people than may have been possible through traditional methods like newsletters, fund raising materials, or websites.

Sure, Pinterest is often disparaged as a time-wasting, want-generating site. But not by those of us who find all sorts of reasons to adore it (even if we’re yawning over some oft-repeated themes). And following some favorite non-profits, or discovering new causes, can enliven your Pinterest experience too.
