St. Joseph's Center for Community Service - Tennant Showcase

The Smyrna-Clayton area, and even its neighboring communities, has grown exponentially in recent years, while services have not kept pace. The mission of St. Joseph's Foundation is to provide space for programs and activities that fill those most critical needs.

Currently, much of the 222-acre property is home to a charter school, but that is moving next year to a brand new campus, re-opening more than 50,000 square feet of space for a myriad of organizations and institutions. Arts entities and groups which promote the arts are among those most sought after for filling that space.

The Foundation is holding a Tenant Showcase on September 10 at the property, just north of downtown Clayton, to provide information about the facility and its breadth of opportunities, as well as a first-hand look at the buildings and grounds.

The program will entail tours of the site, including its six buildings, steeped in history, outfitted for a vast multitude of uses, and surrounded by 200 acres of nature preserve, trails, and recreation areas. There will be wine & heavy hors d’oeuvres, free gifts for everyone, and full-detail packages explaining the availability and options for prospective tenants.

Please visit the web site, www.saintjosephscenter.org, to learn more about St. Joseph's. Attendees are asked to RSVP for the Showcase via the web site Contact page, email to assistant@saintjosephscenter.org, or call the office at (302) 653-8814. Everyone is welcome.

Tenant Showcase: Wednesday, September 10th, 6:00 – 8:00 PM

YouTube Debuts Nonprofit Program

Organizations Can Now Apply for a Designated Nonprofit Channel and Collect Donations Through Google Checkout for Non-Profits

SAN BRUNO, CA--(Marketwire - September 27, 2007) - Hundreds of nonprofits currently leverage YouTube, the leader in online video, to raise awareness of their causes. Today at the Clinton Global Initiative, YouTube announced the YouTube Nonprofit Program, a way to make it even easier for people to find, watch and engage with nonprofit video content on the site.

YouTube's 2007/2008 Clinton Global Initiative commitment enables nonprofit organizations (in the U.S. those with 501c3 tax filing status) that register for the program to receive a free nonprofit specific YouTube channel where they can upload footage of their work, public service announcements, calls to action and more. The channel will also allow them to collect donations with no processing costs using the newly launched Google Checkout for Non-Profits. YouTube's global platform enables nonprofits to deliver their message, showcase their impact and needs, and encourage supporters to take action.

"Video, unlike any other medium, allows nonprofits to give a tangible demonstration of their efforts, connect with people and exponentially widen their reach," said Douglas Staples, Senior Vice President, Strategic Marketing & Communications from the March of Dimes. "We are excited to be an initial participant in the program. We'll use our YouTube channel to reach out to an audience of all ages and engage them in our mission, which is to give every baby a healthy start, and we encourage other nonprofits to do the same."

YouTube Nonprofit Program participants will receive:

  • A premium channel on YouTube that serves as a nonprofit's hub for their uploaded videos. Through the channel, people can connect with a nonprofit via messages, subscriptions, comments and more. Nonprofits will also receive enhanced channel branding features and increased upload capacity.
  • Designation as a 'Nonprofit' on YouTube that clearly identifies organizations as a nonprofit for YouTube community.
  • The ability to embed a Google Checkout donation button on their channel and video watch pages, allowing people to quickly and securely make a contribution directly from YouTube. Starting today, nonprofits who offer Google Checkout for Non-Profits as a donation option -- whether through YouTube or on their own sites -- will receive 100 percent of donated funds, as Google has committed to processing all donations for free through at least the end of 2008.
  • In the coming months, nonprofit channels will have a centralized area on YouTube, making them and their videos more easily discoverable.

"When YouTube was founded we dreamed that people would someday leverage the site to make the world a better place," said YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley. "It is an honor to have great organizations and individuals utilizing the YouTube to raise awareness of noble causes and we are thrilled to offer a program that helps them thrive and inspire change."

At launch there will be a thirteen organizations participating in the YouTube Nonprofit Program including:
24 Hours for Darfur * American Cancer Society * Autism Speaks * 92nd Street Y * Asia Society * Strong American Schools' ED in '08 * Friends of the Earth * International Rescue Committee * March of Dimes * YouthNoise * The ONE Campaign * The Clinton Global Initiative * World Vision Australia

Application Process:
Nonprofits can apply for a nonprofit channel type by going to youtube.com/nonprofits and filling out a short application, which will be processed by our grants team. This page will also contain information on how to take advantage of this new channel type, as well as some tips for how to use YouTube effectively for advocacy and fundraising.

About YouTube:
