Not for Profit Twitter Professionals & Organisations you need to follow

Lynne Newbury - Project Manager

Twitter continues to grow its network with over 500 million tweets sent each day. Many not for profits and associations are expanding their social media reach with most having multiple platforms, where members and other industry professionals can easily follow them and stay up to date with the latest news and information. 

Lots of organisations now have interactive social media feeds on their membership managed websites, so when users, members or sponsors land on the homepage they can quick and easily read the latest tweets and updates. This is also a great way for users to follow the organisation rather than searching for the name on twitter. There are many different formats you can display your twitter feed, see below.
