This would be a great opportunity for their organization…if it is their first time developing video or if they are looking for help creating their video I would recommend that they post to the You Tube volunteer network to find a skilled You Tube user to create a video for their cause (http://www.youtube.com/videovolunteers) Hope this helps!

This is very interesting information! In my regular job I oversee our charitable donation program. A while back an organization asked for a product for their online auction. It was a non-profit that specialized in assisting those with disabilities enjoy the outdoors. I noticed that their Facebook page only had, and still has, 28 followers, their website gets little traffic and, unfortunately, their online auction did not go so well. I have been educating myself on non-profits and have considered volunteering my time, and very novice social media skills, to helping them get the word out about what they are doing. The ability to set them up with a YouTube channel like you describe in this post would be wonderful for them.

I have been nervous about reaching out to them with my offer because I have never managed social media for a company before, although I am an avid reader and have tons of ideas. I need to remember the saying, if you never ask nothing changes. If I offer and they accept it could open up big doors for both of us.

Thanks for spreading the word about YouTube's non profit program.
