Dear Colleagues,

Just a few reminders of upcoming opportunities.

(1)
Wednesday, March 24 2:00 PM EST
Media Tips for Nonprofits with Jan Richter, Advocacy Director at Connect for
Kids  www.connectforkids.org  
When you're busy doing good work-helping teens with algebra problems or
recruiting pediatricians to participate in a baby book program-you don't
have a lot of time to get the word out about the important services you
deliver. But getting the kind of public attention you deserve can help build
your program-from developing your Board to recruiting volunteers. In this
second Talktime chat, Connect for Kids asks media-savvy communications
experts to share their knowledge on how community-based organizations can
get better press coverage for their work and their issues.
