All United Way NYC volunteers should be encouraged to make tumblr accounts regarding their volunteer work. Tumblr is easy to use and acts as a blog featuring pictures, video, text, links etc. It has the great feature of syncing with your existing twitter account so that your followers will know when you post something.

Blogging is a great way to get primary source information. Potential volunteers may read the blogs and be inspired to

work for United Way NYC. Syncing volunteer blogs with other social media sites and

the United Way web site are great ways to increase traffic and SEO.
