"I believe strongly in utilising ICTs, thereby maximising the benefit of social media tools to get our messages across to the world. We have very good examples of cost-effective approaches whereby we were able to reach target audiences we wouldn't otherwise reach so easily using only traditional means. I am dedicated to sharing best practices with others interested in our (online) Marketing & Communications strategies for non-profit use."
