International Rescue Committee encourages people to take action right on their Facebook page – this allows constituents to participate in advocacy campaigns and repost onto their Facebook wall about the action they completed. There are so many opportunities to allow constituents to take action for your organization without ever leaving Facebook – donating, registering, advocating on your behalf – and without ever leaving the place they browse the most – Facebook.
Just like International Rescue Committee, this encourages people to take action right on their Facebook page – this time for Amnesty International. This encourages users to send letters regarding a specific campaign. The key to engaging your constituents is to stay active. They put up campaigns constantly to keep people coming back to take action for a second, third and fourth time.
