Join the Concord Monitor in partnership with Granite United Way for Nonprofits & News: Telling Stories That Matter on July 14. This evening of community connection is open to representatives from local nonprofits.

This training is designed to equip nonprofits – especially small and grassroots organizations – with practical tools to effectively engage with local media, increase visibility and better share their impact on the community.

Participants will gain direct insight from local media professionals while building skills they can immediately apply.

Learn more about how the Monitor engages with nonprofits through its coverage, gain strategies for media pitches and outreach and participate in a dialogue about some of the challenges – and successes – nonprofits are experiencing right now.

If you’ve been looking to build a deeper understanding of what happens once you send a story idea or press release to a news outlet, now is your chance. You’ll discover more about what types of content the Monitor is looking for and what options exist for publication.

This presentation and discussion are designed to assist nonprofits in effective ways to connect with the media.

Target audience: 

  • Small and grassroots nonprofits with a focus in Merrimack County, places with limited staff and marketing capacity
  • Volunteer-led organizations
  • Mid-sized nonprofits looking to strengthen their media strategy

Where: NHTI’s Sweeney Hall Auditorium

When: Tuesday, July 14, 6-7:30 p.m.
