    Posted 12 days ago

    I heard about volunteer programs for social media volunteers on Next door and FB, Insta. They would post found/lost animals in their coordinating next door neighborhood groups and help "hype' up social media post and even moderate chats. I would love to start a program at my facility. I found two- one at North shore animal league but not a lot of information. Does anyone else have a similar program? Do's and Don'ts for starting one?

    I plan on following your post because I am trying to do the same thing. One local rescuer has almost 3,000 people on her NextDoor and I have 30.  All success stories are greatly appreciated.

    Life Line in Atlanta has done a nice job creating Life Line Ambassadors and one of the things they do is help with the use of Next Door. Here is their main page, along with a link to signing up to be an Ambassador (easy jot form). 
    Good luck, it's a great way to reach lots of people! Also, don't forget about the Neighbors platform. If you'd like more info, feel free to reach out to me directly.
