Panel Speaker on Monthly Giving Virtual Conference

Maia Anderson

Speaking at Monthly Giving Summit by Dana Synder

From Scrolling to Sustaining: Social Media for Monthly Giving
As a featured panelist at the Monthly Giving Summit virtual conference (February 2025), sponsored by Give Butter. I shared strategic insights on transforming social media followers into committed monthly donors for nonprofits.

Key Insights

Speak to Someone, Not Everyone

The biggest mistake nonprofits make is creating vague content for everyone instead of speaking directly to someone. By defining both target and "anti-target" audiences, your messaging becomes sharper and more effective.

Mission Clarity Trumps Problem Statements

At Hope Booth, we moved beyond stating "mental health access is important" to sharing stories of real people impacted by hope. This positioned hope as something everyone deserves access to—not just a talking point.

Authenticity Requires Original Content

Stock imagery dilutes storytelling power. At charity: water and Hope Booth, we committed to using only original visuals, even if we had limited resources. This created stronger emotional connections with our audience.

Interactive Engagement Converts

For World Water Day, we used "Pick a Side" and "Did You Know?" polls to make followers active participants rather than passive viewers. This two-way conversation approach significantly improved monthly giving conversions.

Effective Storytelling Formula

The most powerful nonprofit content combines authentic presentation, emotional resonance, and clear calls to action focused specifically on monthly giving opportunities.
