Issue #67, June 20, 2006
EDITOR'S EYE
Dear Social Work Colleagues,
Welcome to Issue #67 of the Social Work E-News. This e-mail newsletter is brought to you by the publisher of THE NEW SOCIAL WORKER magazine, SocialWorker.com, SocialWorkJobBank.com, and other social work publications.
Tomorrow, June 21, marks the observance of National ASK Day. You may be asking what this means. The National ASK Day campaign encourages parents to ask one simple question before their children visit friends: Are there firearms in the home? Parents ask many other questions before allowing their children to play at a friend's house. This additional question will provide parents with additional information about their children's safety. And if the answer is yes, they can then follow up to ask if the guns are locked, loaded, and so forth, to make a better informed decision about where their children spend their time. See http://www.paxusa.org for more information on the ASK campaign and the PAX Speak Up campaign, which encourages kids to speak up if they know of a student who is planning or threatening to take a gun to school.
June 27 is National HIV Testing Day. Hundreds of thousands of people are HIV-positive and do not know it. National HIV Testing Day raises awareness of the need for testing, treatment, and counseling.
In this newsletter, I often mention various upcoming events and observances. We now have an interactive, Web-based calendar of events on our Web site! My goal with this calendar is to provide a comprehensive resource where you can find social work-related events any time of the day or night. The calendar has interactive features, such as e-mail reminders and adding events to your own calendar. We also have a Submit an Event form where you can tell us about upcoming events that you would like to suggest to be added to our central calendar.
See the calendar in action at http://www.socialworker.com/home/menu/Calendar_of_Events/

Until next time,

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF ONLINE FUNDRAISING
By Gary M. Grobman and Gary B. Grant
Note: White Hat Communications, publisher of THE NEW SOCIAL WORKER, announces the upcoming publication of Fundraising Online: Using the Internet to Raise Serious Money for Your Nonprofit Organization by Gary M. Grobman and Gary B. Grant. The following is an excerpt from Chapter 1 of this new book. Copyright 2006 by Gary M. Grobman and Gary B. Grant
In putting together an online fundraising strategy, it is helpful to consider what makes online fundraising different from more conventional methods, such as direct mail, telephone solicitation, face-to-face meetings, and fundraising events. Doing so will permit you to take advantage of the strengths offered by online fundraising, and address how you will take into account its limitations.
Advantages of Internet Fundraising
Among the advantages are:
1. The Internet has a systemized culture that offers potential donors an invitation to find your organization.
Traditionally, nonprofit organizations reach out to potential donors by purchasing targeted mailing lists, advertising in print publications, and culling newspaper articles for information about those with substantial wealth for future follow-up communication. Through the use of links from other Web sites, search engines, online and print directories, and even word of mouth, potential donors will find your organization even if you have not found a way to contact them directly.
2. There is almost universal access to the Internet and increasing comfort with online transactions.
As we write this, more than 60% of American households have Internet access. Access in the office workplace has become almost universal with more than 50 million American--37% of the total workforce--online at work, according to a report from eMarketer and The Wall Street Journal. Even those without their own computers have access to the Internet through their local schools and libraries, and free e-mail accounts are available to everyone with the motivation to sign up for one.
3. Potential donors can make contact with your organization 24 hours a day, seven days a week from anywhere in the world for virtually no incremental cost on their part.
Donors can find your Web site's donate here button at any time of the day or night from any computer that has a modem and access to a telephone line. Free or inexpensive software makes it practical for online forms to capture and process identifying information, payment information, and acknowledge a gift in the blink of an eye, providing the donor the instant gratification that is unavailable through many conventional fundraising methods.
4. In many cases, raising money online is cheaper and faster than traditional fundraising methods.
Compare making a change in a direct mail fundraising brochure to making the same change to the online brochure. Solicitation materials can be modified electronically at any time at virtually no cost, with no extra charges for color. Online fundraising messages can incorporate animations, scrolling messages, and flashing screens that make Web pages more dynamic than their print counterparts. In (almost) a blink of an eye and at virtually no cost, your computer can transmit thousands of electronic newsletters, each containing information of interest to your organization�s supporters, as well as a subtle request for funds to finance a new service or program. Responses (in the form of online donations) can literally come in within seconds.
5. The Internet is less intrusive and annoying than many conventional methods of fundraising.
Direct mail and telephone solicitation appeals too often annoy and alienate. Both are getting less efficient: sending charitable bulk mail is getting more costly as a result of a postal rate increase that took effect in January 2006. Telephone appeals are not as simple as in the past as a result of the popularity of do-not-call lists, caller ID, and other methods that potential donors use to screen calls from sources they do not know. Your fundraising message can be delivered by e-mail and read at a time that is convenient for the reader, who actually has signed up to receive it (along with other communications).
6. Internet fundraising can easily be integrated with other marketing and promotional materials and programs.
Solicitations for donations can be coordinated with other features of an organization's Web site, such as being included in an electronic newsletter, posted on donor recognition Web pages, on links to an organization's sales of goods and services, and with testimonials about the organization that indirectly enhance opportunities for giving. A functional Web site can plant the seeds of future giving and make it convenient for those who make spur-of-the-moment gifts based on what they see on your site.
7. There are decreased transaction costs for Internet-based donation processing and donor outreach efforts.
New business models make it easy to partner with third parties to streamline the online donation process and reach donors who otherwise might never have heard of the organization. Computers using sophisticated software automate many processes, such as accounting, database management, donor acknowledgment, and contact management.
8. There are increased opportunities to build positive relationships with the business community.
Many for-profit businesses are willing to sponsor the Web sites of charities, usually with no more than a "thank you" or a link (typically in the form of the sponsor's logo) from your site to the sponsor's own Web site.
Disadvantages of Internet Fundraising
Using the Internet for fundraising has its disadvantages, as well.
1. The online medium can be impersonal compared to face-to-face fundraising.
Personal, human contact, with the ability to read, interpret, and respond to body language and other non-text cues, is an important component of fundraising, particularly when soliciting large gifts. There are limitations in relying on only what can be viewed on a computer screen to communicate.
2. Government regulation of online fundraising is unsettled.
There are unresolved legal and regulatory issues that have surfaced as a result of online fundraising. Among them are the degree to which the states regulate it, and what the roles are of third party for-profit dot-coms that agree to serve as intermediaries between donors and charities.
3. There are vulnerabilities as a result of having to rely on for-profit third parties.
Many charities are unwilling or unable to build the infrastructure to seek and process online donations. For-profit providers are available to offer these services. Many of them have no track record for reliability, ethical conduct, or financial stability. The need for clear agreements between charities and these third parties raises issues of the transaction costs of creating contracts, motivation, opportunities for outright fraud, privacy with respect to sensitive donor and charity data, and the potential inability of a charity to control a third party's use of that charity's logo.
Most charities are recognizing that, in almost every case, the advantages of using the Internet to supplement traditional fundraising far outweigh the disadvantages. Almost every major charity in the United States has reported raising significant revenues utilizing the Internet.
Note: Fundraising Online: Using the Internet to Raise Serious Money for Your Nonprofit Organization will be available in bookstores in September 2006. You can order this book now directly from the publisher at http://www.whitehatcommunications.com/store

New Web Site Helps Communities Prepare for the Next Disaster
Communities from the battered Gulf Coast to New England are preparing for one of the worst hurricane seasons in the past 40 years, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Volunteer Centers along the eastern seaboard are encouraging potential volunteers to sign up on http://www.HelpinDisaster.org to indicate their skills and availability now, well before the next disaster hits.
Registering volunteers before disaster strikes is the mission of HelpinDisaster.org, launched in May to coincide with National Hurricane Preparedness Week, which ended May 27. The week is designed to help communities prepare for the hurricane season that began June 1 and runs through November 30.
"For the first time, there is a Web site that registers volunteers by skill area in a uniform way and makes this information securely available to the entire disaster volunteer management community," says Robert K. Goodwin, president and CEO of the Points of Light Foundation. "www.HelpinDisaster.org will ensure that volunteer managers can efficiently recruit volunteers with the skills that match the local needs." Through www.HelpinDisaster.org, volunteer information is only shared when the volunteer accepts a job assignment, ensuring that volunteers with critical skills can be connected to urgent community needs.
HelpinDisaster.org, powered by 1-800-Volunteer.org, allows volunteers to register their skills, availability, contact preferences, and ability to travel, so they can be reached when they are needed. It is a Web site portal that provides volunteers with a direct connection to local volunteer opportunities that match interests, skills, and the common desire to make a difference in their communities.
"I think this is a wonderful idea that may offer many people the path to service," says Dave Freeman, Chief Meteorologist for the KSN WeatherLab in Wichita, Kansas.
HelpinDisaster.org is sponsored by the Points of Light Foundation & Volunteer Center National Network, a nonprofit organization in Washington, DC.

NASW Supports A Lion in the House--June 21-22
Washington, D.C. -- The National Association of Social Workers is a national partner supporting the airing of A Lion in the House, a compelling documentary following the lives of five families fighting childhood cancer. The series will air on the PBS series, Independent Lens, from 9 - 11 p.m. on June 21-22 (check local listings).
"Your child has cancer." Hearing these four words will profoundly change a family's life, plunging them into a world of uncertainty, emotional upheaval, and excruciating decisions. Every year in the United States, approximately 12,500 children and adolescents are diagnosed with this disease. Each will have a unique experience in confronting the disease and the treatment, but all will embark on a journey that is bewildering, terrifying, nearly unbearable, and certainly quite unlike anything most people associate with the normal experience of childhood. The families of the children will join them on their harrowing odyssey, and regardless of outcome, no one involved will ever be the same again.
From the trauma of diagnosis to the physical toll of treatment, from the stresses that can tear a family apart to the courage of children who face the possibility of death with honesty and humor, rebellion and dignity, A Lion in the House is an unprecedented portrait of this life-altering experience captured in all its complex dimensions. As the film compresses six years into one narrative, it puts viewers in the shoes of parents, physicians, nurses, siblings, grandparents, and social workers as they struggle to defeat an indiscriminate and predatory disease.
A Lion in the House is an intimate, intense, and ultimately inspiring documentary about ordinary people getting through the impossible. A co-production of the Independent Television Service (ITVS), the documentary will have its broadcast premier on the ITVS and PBS series, Independent Lens, June 21-22 from 9-11 p.m. (check local listings).
Other national partners for the program are American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), American Cancer Society (ACS), Association of Oncology Social Work (AOSW), Association of Pediatric Oncology Nurses (APON), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Children's Cause for Cancer Advocacy (CCCA), CureSearch, Gilda�s Club Worldwide, Health Ministries Association (HMA), Hope Street Kids, Intercultural Cancer Council (ICC), Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF), Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO), Oncology Nursing Society (ONS), PADRES Contra El Cáncer.
