Jumo, the new social-networking site designed to give donors the ability to discover and connect with charities or causes, has received widespread attention in the nonprofit world since it went live on November 30.
Much of that attention arises from its social-media bloodlines.
Jumo is the brainchild of Chris Hughes, a co-founder of Facebook and the online architect of Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential run. As a result, Jumo faces high expectations—and is generating a lot of discussion.
What should the nonprofit world expect from Jumo? How can nonprofits use the network to raise awareness and money? How will the site stand out in what is already a crowded social-media landscape?
Join The Chronicle on Friday, December 10, at noon U.S. Eastern time, for a live online discussion with Mr. Hughes, who will be available to answer these and other questions about how charities can best promote their causes on social networks.
