Do you Tweet?

Social media guru, Beth Kanter of Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media, recently told EPIP chapter leaders that not using social media tools was no longer an option- that groups, both nonprofits and foundations will be left behind.

With that said, here is a list of 90 foundations that Tweet. Seattle foundations include:

• Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (Seattle, WA) @gatesfoundation
• Jolkona Foundation (Seattle, WA) @jolkona
• The Moyer Foundation (Seattle, WA) @MoyerFoundation
• Pride Foundation (Seattle, WA) @PrideFdn
• Social Venture Partners Seattle (Seattle, WA) @paulshoeSVP

Is your foundation on this list? Why or why not? Is your foundation resistant to using these mediums to communicate, or are you embracing it? Which tools have been useful/not so useful?

These are the questions we'd like to answer at our next happy hour event on August 13th at the Jelly Bar. Hope you can join us and share your own stories!
