The South Carolina Association of Nonprofit Organizations (SCANPO) recently held its annual nonprofit conference in North Charleston, SC. SCANPO consists of over 800 member organizations and serves as the statewide network, information center and advocate for the charitable nonprofit sector in South Carolina.
This year, nearly 400 members were in attendance for the association’s 11th annual conference at the Sheraton North Charleston. The two-day event was filled with several educational sessions where attendees learned more about management, development, collaboration and ways to engage the community.
During the conference, attendees had the opportunity to listen to Jay Wilkinson, Digital Community Foundation Founder and Chairman, as he shared with them real-world success stories on how nonprofits are harnessing the power of the internet. In his presentation, Jay explained the five crucial elements necessary for an effective website, online fundraising tips and tricks, social networking strategies and more.
Jay has appeared on CNN and other news programs discussing how emerging technologies affect businesses and nonprofits and is considered a top authority on the web. Firespring is a leading provider of web solutions worldwide with nearly 3,000 customers in 14 countries.
