Charity Water a non-profit raising money to provide clean water around the world. Although I had not heard of this organization before watching the Google Hangout, I am very impressed with their website alone. I believe viewers love going to a website and being about to navigate and feel comfortable and overwhelmed with "donate, donate, donate" signs plastered in every corner. And in most cases this where is begin for new supports so it's great to have a great website that you can link in your social media outlets.
One social media outlet that stood out to me the most however is Twitter. I never been to engaged into one's twitter so much. The pictures they post are great. All around I think they are very effectively showing non-profits what a social media platform should be. They are posting frequently, I believe everyday and it's not just facts and updates but it's actual content from their website, pictures, links to stories and more.
They also remain relevant to their followers by retweeting their followers. I think this type of engagement is very important for non-profits who are looking to expand and become more well known. This is special to Charity Water and only a few other non-profits that I have researched. Response is everything to a followers so just that simple retweet may get them to give back to the organization.
