With the recent success of our "For Hire" self service advertising campaign, we thought we would reach out to another worthwhile audience — nonprofit organizations.
Along the same vein as the previous campaign, we are striving to come up with ways to give back to the community — not just you all, but the rest of the planet as well. This time we want to open doors and opportunities to these amazing organizations that are attempting to do incredible things for the world, usually with less-than-optimal funding. Since NPOs usually want as much possible going toward their goals, advertising is generally low on the list of priorities when it comes to finances, and any sort of promotion — be it of themselves, their projects, or their accomplishments — are not heard of nearly enough.
That's where we'd like to step in. You all, our community, have done some amazing things throughout the years. We have an awesome subreddit, /r/NonProfit, and whether it's organizing a shopping spree for a dying girl, raising over $100,000 for the Haiti earthquake victims, fixing a picture of a man's deceased mum, or any of the astonishingly altruistic things you all have managed to do, your empathy and selflessness has been deeply touching.
So, now, and for the rest of the month of September, we would like to do our part and reach out to you and offer some free self service advertisement to your NPO: $100 advertising credit for three days of reddit sponsored headlines.
To get started, you'll need a verified reddit account. Then, visit this link and follow the instructions to create your promotion. You'll need a catchy title, a working URL, and you have the option of uploading a 70x70 thumbnail if you wish. Once you've done this, email me the "edit" link to your ad, and I can take care of the rest.
And redditors, here's where your awesomeness comes into play — you can leave helpful comments on these ads! Give our NPO's helpful tips. You're a brilliant and savvy audience with lots of insight on tons of things, and our NPO's can take advantage of your knowledge and opinions.
Thank you for all you do. Sincerely, team reddit.
