Introduction You have the opportunity to create a day that everyone will come to recognize as the worldwide day of giving. Your main goal is to set apart the Tuesday after Thanksgiving as a day that people recognize as “Giving <]M[LIaº�·�I�LIa�QV�_PQKP�XMWXTM�OQ^M�[MZ^QKM�QV�I�^IZQM\a�WN �_Ia[��QVKT]LQVO�\QUM��UWVMa�IVL�MٺWZ\��)VaWVM�KIV�be involved because everyone is capable of giving something.

Since 1874, 92Y has gained traction among people in New York City and in the United States with programs that enrich lives, strengthen communities and elevate humanity. More than 300,000 people visit 92Y’s New York venues and millions get in-volved around the world through satellite services and the Internet. 92Y’s desire to serve and build up communities provides the catalyst behind the #GivingTuesday campaign. In order to expand the campaign, 92Y enlisted your help, the UN foundation, to act as strategic advisors NWZ�\PM�XZWRMK\��0MVZa�<QUU[��I�_WZSMZ�I\�!�A�_PW�KZMI\ML�\PM�ÅZ[\��/Q^QVO<]M[LIa�M^MV\�TI[\�aMIZ��NMT\�aW]Z�experience in taking on tough issues would be a great addition to the project (see here). Since establishing the partnership last year, the two organizations have created a new logo, added new partners and set more ambitious goals for #GivingTuesday this year. #GivingTuesday, through its partners and social media ambassadors, inspires people to give on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. #GivingTueday coordinates the event by providing resources to its partners and [WKQIT�UMLQI�IUJI[[ILWZ[�QVÆ]MVKMZ[��<PW]OP��/Q^QVO<]M[LIa�PI[�][ML�.IKMJWWS�IVL�JTWO[��Q\[�XZQUIZa�[WKQIT�media channel is Twitter. Last year #GivingTuesday inspired thousands of organizations and social media users to participate in the event. #GivingTuesday plans to continually increase online participation each year.

The External Environment Currently, you have a community of partners that wish to further the same cause of global giving. Partners are charities registered to participate in #GivingTuesday through promoting personal initiatives. In addition to ZMOQ[\MZML�KPIZQ\QM[��XIZ\VMZ[�KIV�IT[W�JM�NWZ�XZWÅ\�J][QVM[[M[��[KPWWT[�WZ�ZMTQOQW][�KWUU]VQ\a�OZW]X[�KWUUQ\\ML�\W�[XMIZPMILQVO�I�XZWRMK\�JMVMÅ\QVO�I\�TMI[\�WVM�ZMOQ[\MZML�KPIZQ\a� Partners are encouraged to plan a charitable event on #GivingTuesday. This provides opportunities for participants to easily get involved with organizations they already associate with. These events help achieve your goal of uniting communities in charitable causes. Last year, support was mainly generated from hashtag trending lists. The hashtag used to promote social good on #GivingTuesday is currently the largest factor in creating action from partners and their participants. Because partners are mostly just encouraged through online means to participate in #GivingTuesday, any personal contact or interest in helping their charitable initiatives could create more loyalty to the yearly movement.

In order to promote the idea of a day of giving online, you ask partners and social media ambassadors to be involved in posting material online using the logo and hashtag. You have a presence on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Tumblr, Instagram, YouTube and Google+. Google and Millward Brown conducted a study in September 2013, in which they concluded that donors now prefer digital sources to traditional ones when researching and picking charities.

The following information is from this study. The report analyzes 4,492 social mentions including the keywords: @unfoundation giving tuesday, @Giv-ingTues, @GivingTuesdayHI, #givingtuesday, #givingtues, #givingtuesday2013, #givingtues2013, Giving Tues-day, @GivingSpokane, @GivingTuesBucks, 92Y Giving Tuesday, December 3 giving, Dec 3 giving, December third giving and Dec third giving. Positive online conversations included the keywords: emotions join, help, good, want and strength. The peak of conversation occurred on October 3 at 2 p.m. and included the keywords: _MJQVIZ��,MKMUJMZ��aMIZ��KPIZQ\QM[�IVL�RWQV��<PM�UW[\�QVÆ]MV\QIT�XZWÅTM�\PI\�UMV\QWVML�\PQ[�M^MV\�L]ZQVO�\PM�_MMS�was the @unfoundation with 170,570 followers. @unfoundation’s mentions were shared 1,300 times.

National Retail Federation President and CEO, Matthew Shay, says Black Friday is a huge win because Thanksgiving shopping has become an extension of the day’s activities and whole families are going out to shop. Nearly 139.4 million people shopped during Black Friday weekend in 2012. You may initially have trouble partnering with major department stores and businesses that thrive on Black Friday and Cyber Monday because of how busy they are. However, if you adequately appeal to these corporations’ self-interest of improving their image and creating goodwill, you can persuade them that they can’t IٺWZL�\W�VW\�\ISM�XIZ\�QV��/Q^QVO<]M[LIa���<PM[M�KWZXWZI\QWV[�KIV�IT[W�JM�XMZ[]ILML�I[�aW]�[PIZM�_Q\P�\PMU�\PM�names of other corporations that are getting involved. This creates a sense of “corporate peer pressure,” similar to the pressure that Black Friday deals spurred. The competition between corporations for holiday sales is what drove wider acknowledgement of Black Friday initially and, in turn, what drove attention from participating consumers. Through committing targeted corporations to participate in #GivingTuesday, you can not only diminish the aspect of competition from these companies for participant attention, but you can also create allies that will champion your idea and help brand the day. It is vital for you to help corporations see how promoting #GivingTuesday can help improve their reputation and goodwill. By doing so you will gain their participation and reach millions of holiday shoppers who hold the potential of being future #GivingTuesday participants.

Resources Your #GivingTuesday website provides excellent online resources for partners. On the resources page, the following resources are available: partner resources, educational resources, case studies, charity and volunteer advisors, giving platforms and how to request a mayoral proclamation for #GivingTuesday. The “partner resources” section of the site includes logos for download and a communications toolkit. This toolkit includes: UMOI�UM[[IOM[��I�NIK\�[PMM\��TQ[\�WN �XIZ\VMZ[�NZWU�������.)9��[WKQIT�UMLQI�O]QLM�_Q\P�\_MM\[��[IUXTM�W]\ZMIKP�email, questionnaire, action plan ideas, communications timeline and a press release template.

Your resources are extensive; however, the method in which messages are dispersed by partners and social media ambassadors is really left up to them. The content you provide is useful, but the lack of structure in when and how to deliver messages may be counterproductive if the desired goal is to unite everyone in setting apart a day of giving.

It’s important to emphasize more heavily that participants can “give back” in ways that do not require money.

It will be important for you to implement new strategies and tactics that will keep these opinion leaders interested and involved throughout the year, but not require them to ask for donations from followers all year long.

Situation Analysis You currently have over 2,500 partners and many social media ambassadors involved in helping you brand #GivingTuesday as the worldwide day of giving. So far #GivingTuesday has seen some great success. If you want to turn it into a self-sustaining global holiday however some chansges will have to be made. Our research shows it will be crucial to have a year-round strategic communications plan wholly focused on reaching participants.� ?PQTM�aW]�PI^M�XZW^QLML�M`\MV[Q^M�WVTQVM�ZM[W]ZKM[�NWZ�[WKQIT�UMLQI�IUJI[[ILWZ[�IVL�XIZ\VMZ[��\PM�methods of promoting #GivingTuesday is largely left up to them.

In the days before the event, you’ll experience a jolt to the conversation as your corporate partners make Black Friday and Cy-ber Monday irreplaceable promotional opportunities. Through implementing this suggested year-round plan you will have a greater impact on participants, and the awareness of #GivingTuesday will grow in the coming years.

Core opportunity Because participants will drive the long-term momentum of this campaign, we have the opportunity to increase awareness and engagement on #GivingTuesday as we pursue a more organic online conversation.

Introduction ?M�are seeking to have the Tuesday following Black Friday and Cyber Monday globally recognized as #GivingTuesday.

Fostering an organic online conversation will stimulate a long-term perpetual movement for this campaign. The following planning and programming section will explain how to create a self-sustaining brand for #GivingTuesday.

Key Publics, Messages and Strategies & Tactics

Social Media Opinion Leaders Social media opinion leaders, also known as your social media ambassadors, are males and females rang-QVO�NZWU�� �\W����aMIZ[�WTL��<PMa�\MVL�\W�TQ^M�QV�JQO�KQ\QM[�IVL�QVÆ]MVKM�NWTTW_MZ[�QV�\PMQZ�[IUM�IOM�OZW]X��-^MV�\PW]OP�[WKQIT�UMLQI�Q[�WV�I�OTWJIT�[KITM��\PM�UIRWZQ\a�WN �[WKQIT�UMLQI�WXQVQWV�TMILMZ[�WV�<_Q\\MZ�IZM�)UMZQKIV��They focus on consistently providing content that relates to their followers on a personal level. � *MQVO�QV^WT^ML�QV�UIRWZ�KIUXIQOV[�IVL�KPIZQ\IJTM�KI][M[�KIV�JM�I�PQOPTa�JMVMÅKQIT�KIZMMZ�UW^M�NWZ�[WKQIT�media ambassadors. It’s highly important to opinion leaders that they are on the forefront of movements. They want to be able to take part of the credit for making an event/campaign successful. Every opinion leader has a distinct angle and voice they use to set themselves apart. They utilize their distinct voice to promote events in a ]VQY]M�_Ia��)T[W��QV^WT^MUMV\�[XMKQÅKITTa�QV�KPIZQ\IJTM�KI][M[�PMTX[�P]UIVQbM�\PMU�� It’s important to note though that social media opinion leaders are highly strategic in how they post. They share promotional content in moderation. They do not want to become a giant advertisement for any organi-zation. In our proposal, the greatest challenge with this public will be getting them to post a larger amount of content about #GivingTuesday.

Primary MessageBe at the forefront of a growing movement - report the good caused by #GivingTuesday and inspire others to also make a change.

Secondary Messages• Media opinion leaders are shown to not only be strong voices, but people who actually interpret content for

others online. In this case, social media opinion leaders can interpret the many components of #GivingTues-day to non-opinion leaders.

• Social media opinion leaders are commonly labeled as “experts” and “especially educated” by their followers. If social media opinion leaders portray #GivingTuesday as an irreplaceable service opportunity others will take their word and act accordingly.

Strategy OneTo recruit and publicly recognize social media opinion leaders’ participation in #GivingTuesday through social media, email and an event, from December to September.

pendix B• Create a biweekly Follow Friday (#FF) campaign where @GivingTues asks its followers to follow certain social

media ambassadors who participated in last year’s #GivingTuesday campaign. You can use online services, such as HootSuiteq, to schedule these tweets.

• On #GivingTuesday’s half-birthday, send out a thank-you email to the social media ambassadors.• Email a monthly newsletter, “Report Good, Inspire Change,” to all social media opinion leaders. Newsletter

spotlights one social media ambassador’s contribution to #GivingTuesday. ;MM�)XXMVLQ`�*• Invite a few social media ambassadors to the Social Good Summit.

consumers committed to service. • Corporations involved in assisting a local charity have a greater opportunity to network with other like-minded
