The Power of Social Networks
Recently our Depression and Anxiety and Survivor's of Suicide Support Groups ran out of space in their current location so they moved to the group room at the Foundation 2 Administrative Office. Though this room is spacious, the lighting is poor and group participants commented on the need for better lighting to make groups a more comfortable experience. Foundation 2 staff determined that two floor lamps would brighten the room and create a pleasant environment. I posted the need for donations of floor lamps on our website and also listed the donation need on Twitter and Facebook. One week later we received a call from a woman who had just moved to the area- she had two extra floor lamps in her garage and had been looking at local websites for a place to donate them. What a perfect match! I am grateful for the opportunity to spread information about Foundation 2 through so many venues and stories like this remind me of the power that our website can have.
