Share News About Your Nonprofit or Good Cause with a Patch Blog

Posting on Patch is quick and easy, and helps you connect with the community.

If you are involved with a local nonprofit organization, you know how important it is to connect with the community.

And at Patch, we know you can't truly serve a community unless you provide the help it needs most. That's why giving back is so important to us.

Everyday, thousands of your neighbors turn to Patch for local news, information and conversation. Our audience cares about social causes close to home, they volunteer, and they're active with organizations where they work and live. Why not reach them and share more about your organization?

We’re calling all:

  • Part of the Patch mission is to strengthen communities and improve the lives of their residents, but we can't do it without you. Our blogging platform allows members of the community—from cooking enthusiasts to local politicians and everyone in between—to interact and post directly to the site. These posts then appear on the homepage, in the daily newsletter and are shared by editors via Facebook and Twitter.

    The best thing about sharing your stuff on Patch is it's your space so it's your rules. Write as frequently, or infrequently as you'd like. Short or long, essay style or a quick how-to. Blogging on Patch is a great way to share your opinions with the community and get your voice out there.

    Interested? Email Community Editor Christine Huard at christine.huard@patch.com and I'll get you set up.
