• Gain critical visibility with media and policymakers

X best practices for nonprofits

Ready to get the most out of X? Here are a few best practices to help your nonprofit maximize engagement and fundraising impact:

• Simplify giving 💸 Add your Givebutter campaign link to your X profile bio so it’s easy for followers to join your fundraising efforts.
  
• Create community 💛 Tag other X (Twitter) users—supporters, sponsors, partners—in your posts to boost visibility and engagement. Be sure to like and reply to supporters’ posts, too.
  
• Automate 🔄 Schedule tweets ahead of time for busy campaigns like Giving Tuesday so you can spend more time engaging supporters or focusing on more mission-critical tasks.
  
• Leverage hashtags 🤳 Always create and use a simple hashtag for your fundraising campaigns to use in your tweets and on other social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram to increase visibility.
  
• Consider your expectations and time investment ⌛ Unless your organization has a Premium X plan, ROI may be limited—so consider treating X as a supplemental channel for engagement rather than your primary one.
