HIVE LIVE Nonprofits & Social Media: Tool, Trap, or Something More?
This event is hosted on LinkedIn. Registration is required to attend.
Social media is everywhere—but is it working for your nonprofit, or working you over?
In 2026, the digital landscape is moving faster than ever. New platforms pop up monthly. Algorithms change weekly. And generative AI has made content creation easier—and more questionable—than ever before.
For nonprofits, this shifting terrain brings both possibility and pressure.
This conversation will unpack the complex relationship between social media and the nonprofit sector—beyond the “post more!” advice and into the heart of what actually builds trust, alignment, and connection online. Because the real question isn’t “Are you keeping up?”—it’s “Does this still serve your mission?”
Date: Tuesday, February 24, 2026
Time: 12:30–1:15 PM (EST)
Location: LinkedIn Live
What We’ll Explore:
How the role of social media is evolving for nonprofits in 2026
When showing up online builds trust—and when it’s okay to log off
Ethical storytelling in a digital-first, AI-driven world
Prioritizing platforms, content, and boundaries when time is limited
Internal mindset shifts: from “How often should we post?” to “Why are we posting?”
Panelists:
Kate Meyers Emery | Senior Digital Communications Manager, Candid
Shay Leonia | Communications Manager, American Humanist Association
Wasseem Emam | Founder, Director & Head of Research
Facilitator: Tasha Van Vlack | Co-Director, Community & Marketing, Nonprofit Hive & Founder & Community Strategist, Community Hives
This isn’t about going viral.
It’s about using social media to build real connection—without burning out your team or compromising your message.
Because showing up online should be an act of alignment, not obligation.
