We were elated to be part of such an inspiring and impactful day at the Mohawk Valley Nonprofit Symposium! ๐Ÿ’ฅ

From the inspiring keynote from Scott Grates - State Farm Agent, to many networking and break out sessions from our friends at Universal Bookkeeper, The Community Foundation and Mohawk Valley Gives, Daneli Partners, and Osa Philanthropy, our team is still buzzing from such a fun day!

Our very own, Francesca Orsomarso, presented two sessions, Return On Impact: How to Use Your Social Media for Good.

We're honored to announce that our agency will be presenting at the Mohawk Valley Nonprofit Symposium this Thursday, November 13th! ๐Ÿ’ฅ

This inspiring event brings together nonprofit professionals, board members, and community partners from all over CNY for a day wholeheartedly dedicated to leading with purpose.

Our CEO, Francesca Orsomarso, will be presenting Return on Impact: How to Use Your Social Media for Good. Social media success goes far beyond a newsfeed โ€” itโ€™s all about what happens after a click.

In this interactive session, Francesca will reveal the complete digital ecosystem that transforms casual supporters into committed donors โ€” and it all begins with a click. ๐ŸŽฏ

This is NOT a one-way lecture. This is an important conversation with the changemakers of our community that is designed to generate more of an impact than ever before.

Thank you to the team at Next - Herkimer County for bringing us all together for this exciting opportunity! ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’Œ With the arrival of year-end giving season, here's what EVERY nonprofit needs to know about email marketing:

โœจ December emails generate 12% of annual donations, but organizations that start building momentum in October see the biggest results.

โœจ Personalized emails see open rates 82% higher than generic blasts, yet most nonprofits send the same message to everyone. Segmentation = higher engagement and more donations.

โœจ Welcome emails have the highest open rates of any email type, but 70% of nonprofits aren't maximizing this first-impression opportunity.

Feeling overwhelmed yet? We get it. ๐Ÿค

You're the expert at your mission. We're the experts at marketing it.

While you're changing lives, we'll handle the strategy, ex*****on, and optimization of your email marketing. You focus on your mission - we'll make sure the right people hear about it.

This is Peggy Romano of Holy Family Parish โ€“ a beautifully historic church in Little Falls, NY. โ›ช

In preparation for , our team partnered with The Community Foundation to create a capacity-building program designed for extra-small to small nonprofit organizations โ€” helping them prepare for their most impactful giving day yet.

Peggy dove into the program with passion, curiosity, and heart โ€” and her results speak volumes. ๐Ÿ”Š

With the support of Peggy and our Helping Hands team, Holy Family Parish raised an incredible $130,995 during Mohawk Valley Gives! Thatโ€™s well beyond their $100,000 goal โ€” and even more astounding when you realize they raised just $125 last year. Talk about growth! ๐ŸŽ‰

How did we get there? With a smart, strategic, and creative approach that included:

โœ… Targeted ad campaigns that reached the right donors at the right time
โœ… A custom-designed GiveGab profile that told a compelling story
โœ… Scroll-stopping, professional graphics that grabbed attention
โœ… Powerful messaging that converted clicks into donors
โœจ โ€ฆand more!

Weโ€™re beyond proud of Peggy for her success and dedication to renovating and preserving the rich, historic legacy of this beloved Little Falls church. ๐Ÿ™Œ

We love sharing these inspiring journeys with you. Follow along with us at FMN Creative to keep up and maybe even secure YOUR spot as the next success story (year end giving is HERE! ๐Ÿ‘€).

โœจ Custom designed graphics that allowed donors to SEE their impact
โœจ ... and MORE!

We help your bold ideas find their audience and transform into real, lasting impact for the Mohawk Valley and BEYOND. ๐ŸŒŸ

Helping Hands began with a clear mission: to be a capacity-building campaign accelerator program, equipping small nonprofits participating in Mohawk Valley Gives with the tools to amplify their mission.

As the program unfolded, something even more profound emerged. ๐Ÿฉท

Through shared experiences, we are inspired by the journey these students went on from individual leaders to now a close-knit community of purpose driven changemakers. ๐ŸŒฑ

may be over, but the incredible impact of Helping Hands is still reverberating throughout the 315, proving it was never JUST about giving back โ€“ itโ€™s also about growing forward, together. ๐Ÿ‘

Our recent post- session served as a powerful and inspiring reflection point. โœจ

Last week, we gathered our inaugural Helping Hands crew with The Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties and recapped all of the lessons, week-by-week modules, social media campaigns, and winning strategies that helped this group of nonprofits raise over $220k during !

DONโ€™T GO AWAY! We collaboratively envisioned an even bigger, more profound impact for next year. ๐Ÿ‘€

Every great story begins with someone willing to believe in it. ๐Ÿ’š

For Helping Hands, this program wouldn't have been possible without the support of The Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties and Upmobility Foundation.

We're filled with gratitude for the partnerships that made this initiative possible from the very start. Helping Hands is an accelerator program that invests in the heart of every nonprofit โ€”the passionate people behind the mission โ€” by equipping leaders with skills to build their internal capacity and amplify their impact. โค๏ธ

Together, we created a space where purpose-driven leaders could explore communicating their mission, learn how to tell their story on digital platforms, hone their skills to build sustainable giving initiatives, and make a real impact through collaboration and commitment. ๐Ÿ‘

This photo? It's proof of what's possible when organizations come together with a shared goal: it will strengthen the heart of our region for years to come.

We're deeply grateful to our partners and friends at The Community Foundation and UpMobility Foundation for your support and your shared belief that investing in the people who care IS the foundation of long-lasting change. ๐ŸŒฑ

Our "Done-With-You" approach means we didn't just hand them a playbook โ€” we worked side-by-side to bring their campaigns to life.

As we close this amazing first chapter, we went straight to the source. Their reflections tell the inspiring story of what happens when strategy meets passion.

These selfless leaders are living PROOF that when you give community organizations the right support, they rise above every challenge. ๐Ÿ’ช
