Ocean Blue Project
Volunteer engagement, social media, and fundraising strategies
What did Ocean Blue Project need?
Ocean Blue Project, a 501c3 environmental organization based in Corvallis, Oregon, needed help with fundraising strategies, driving sustained engagement by volunteers, and designing resources for raising awareness of the Ocean Blue Project brand and its mission via social media.
Why is this project important?
This project is essential for raising awareness and support for the organization’s mission to recover 1 million pounds of microplastics and debris from beaches and waterways that flow to our One World Ocean.
What did Eagle Creek Partners provide?
We created a points and levels-based system for recognizing and rewarding different volunteer engagement opportunities and made recommendations for developing new strategies and tactics for volunteer recognition and retention. We also provided recommendations for leveraging social media to build brand awareness and to drive future fundraising efforts.
“Mike researches and develops creative strategies unique to the needs of the organizations he works with, and I highly recommend his services for those in need of direction. He certainly provided Ocean Blue with many ideas on how to grow our supporter base.”
