Social Change News & nothing else

Ubicación

Help create the internets' hub for news on social change. Everyday social entrepreneurs create new opportunities for people who care about society, to get involved and positively influence their own community, but too often these changemakers don't gather the media attention they deserve. Our mission is to facilitate access to these stories that do not get the coverage they warrant, and deliver them to the public in a new way.

We want to empower PR practitioners within change organizations to communicate directly with your audience.  Why not serve as citizen journalists yourselves, reporting breaking news on your own organization directly to the public.  We operate a website that provides an opportunity for pre-screened change organizations to submit unedited and unfiltered breaking news ABSOLUTELY FREE, and have it published immediately upon submission.

Lets start a dialogue on whether changemakers have the credibility to report their own news.  The timing is perfect - We are experiencing a digital revolution that is impacting society in many different ways, including the news industry and how information is exchanged.  No one knows where we will end up so lets get creative.  Lets start to think outside the box and come up with new ideas for you to get your message out. 

The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is now accepting applications for the 2010 Knight News Challenge, a contest that seeks innovative ideas using digital experiments to transform community news.  SocialChangeNews.com recently submitted an application for the first round.  Give us some support if you see the value in what we do, click on the link below or copy and paste the link below in your browser to rate our application at the newschallenge.org site - http://generalapp.newschallenge.org/SNC/ViewItem.aspx?pguid=6aee8166-fb7c-4a2e-8581-fa6f6ff036dd&itemguid=e0697943-b7cb-402d-a08e-49f8e89cfd4c 

In the interim, lets start the conversation and spread the word to everyone you know that's working tirelessly to change our society.
