Okay, y’all. Serious non-serious chat. Our nonprofit hit a crazy milestone—$100k from ONE MEME. Yup, you read that right. :money_mouth_face: Anyone else using memes to fundraise? Let’s swap secrets! :light_bulb:

No way! Meme magic is REAL :astonished_face::sparkles:. Was it like a viral TikTok thing or what? We need those donation deets cuz my org is struggling to get love :weary_face::seedling:.

Here for the numbers! Was it like a pepe or something more… original? :hot_pepper: Originality is golden, but complicates things. Spill!

Fess up! How do you even coordinate a meme campaign?? My board would totally side-eye me to infinity and beyond :rocket::sweat_smile:

@greenearthgeek @socialjustice_bard Okay, so we took that ‘Distracted Boyfriend’ meme and re-mixed it with our mission—turned it into ‘Distracted Donor’ :rofl:. Key was linking it to a super-specific call-to-action. Each share counted! :money_with_wings:

This is sending me. My NGO is literally Millennial central and we thought memes were just for funzies. Gonna drop this in our Slack :bubble_tea:.

BRB gonna pitch this to my boss and see if we can throw some spicy memes into our boring newsletters :hot_pepper::e_mail:. Also, what platform worked best for you?

@gifguru88 Here’s the OG meme :joy::fire:: [link]. And @genzervibes Instagram was our Holy Grail. Insta stories = prime real estate.

Our crew tried memes but got shut down by our social media ‘guardians’ :eyes:. How’d you sell this to your team without getting roasted?

@digital_activist Lol, it was a total memeception moment. Started with testing among interns (aka meme squad) then we showed some early engagement stats to the higher-ups :chart_increasing:. Numbers don’t lie :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:.

Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed. :fire: Anyone know if this scales like crazy, or will we end up as the next meme cringe story?

@climate_crusader Memes got perishable cred, so always be evolving. We’re thinking GIFs next! But serious… don’t milk the meme :cow_face:.

future_faucet

Curious. Can memes be too niche? We work in a super specific sector—like, supporting left-handed llamas, niche. Afraid no one’s gonna get it :thinking::ewe:.

@future_faucet If your audience loves it, you’re golden! Test with your base, and if they vibe with it, trust they’ll spread it. :bullseye:

It’s all fun and memes till someone gets offended. How do you ensure you don’t cross any lines or get canceled? :stop_sign:

@humblehacker Definitely a tightrope. We have a small but mighty sensitivity squad that checks every meme for potential :triangular_flag:. Stay woke, friends!
