If you want to launch a Facebook campaign, where do you start? Facebook’s strategic partnerships manager, Libby Leffler, spoke to Mashable about great ways nonprofits can be active on Facebook  (opens in a new tab). One of her recommendations is to use the Nonprofits Resource Center. According to Leffler, the center has the best examples of Facebook projects, and it’s meant to “lift great ideas and spark really great creative content.” “It’s not just big nonprofits and it’s not just corporations that are launching foundations and crowdsourcing dollars. It’s also grassroots, it’s organic, it’s real people who launch a page in their kitchen over a cup of coffee,” she says. How is your organization making the most of its Facebook activity?
