Sticky Situations: Marketing and Media Magic for Volunteer Engagement - Presented by Dana Litwin, CVA

"Sticky” is a marketing term to describe a message that is understandable, memorable, and effective in changing thought or behavior, and keeps people highly engaged. Learn the same media and marketing techniques used by the top global corporations to deepen engagement in your community and recruit volunteer talent, even with little or no budget. By the end of this session, participants will have the knowledge and resources to make their engagement and recruitment messaging more sticky.

About our Presenter: 
Dana Litwin, CVA, is a globally recognized strategic advisor, keynote speaker, and thought leader in volunteerism-tech-trends and civic service. Since 2002 she has guided organizations in California's Silicon Valley and nationwide to produce breakthrough volunteer and community engagement programs. Dana is the creator of the YouTube series  “Priceless Advice for Leaders of Volunteers”, served as President of the Association of Leaders in Volunteer Engagement (AL!VE), and is a founder and facilitator of the multi-sector National Alliance for Volunteer Engagement. 



Register below via zoom!  You will receive a confirmation and reminders before the event.  AL!VE Academy Webinars are free for AL!VE members with an individual, agency, or local association membership.  Non members are billed $25 after attending.

2/28/2022
National Networks COP:
Those working at a national level face different issues than those operating on a local or regional level. Often national level leaders are engaged in big picture, strategic or policy decision-making. Sometimes those operating at a national level don’t work directly with volunteers, but rather help empower others in their organizations who do. Join the discussion to connect and learn from others working nationally. We invite anyone looking to brainstorm around the unique issues facing volunteer leaders on a national level.  This COP group will be a chance to network, share expertise, ask questions, and solve problems with your peers. 

 *note* When you register, you will be automatically be registered for all the future COP dates (listed below) and monthly reminders will be sent - the COP will use the same zoom link. 
​You may opt out by emailing manager@volunteeralive.org 


  All times 2:30 Eastern
Jan 22, Mar 25, May 20, Jul 22, Sep 23, Nov 25
