INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - All organizations, nonprofits and churches in Indian River County are invited to participate in the sixth annual nonprofit media breakfast and workshop to take place from 9-11:30 a.m. on Sept. 26 at the Vero Beach Elks Lodge, 1350 26th St..
This session brings together representatives from local print, radio and electronic media outlets for the purpose of providing practical tips to nonprofit staff and volunteers about how to best publicize their charitable events, programs and causes in the community.
Those who attend will learn new ways to help organizations be aware of new trends and stay updated about media outlet requirements for submitting news and information. Promotional materials from nonprofits can be presented to expected media participants.
After registration, everyone is invited to help themselves to a continental breakfast - juice provided by Natalie's of Orchid Island - and be seated at assigned tables.
Following a brief introduction, media representatives will make short presentations and then move from table to table every 7 to 8 minutes. Participants will stay seated while the media rotate around the room until each table hears from every speaker.
Additional time is being scheduled at the conclusion of the program for follow-up questions and informal conversation with media attendees.
Because this type of event requires significant planning and coordination, please RSVP and pre-pay. Cost is $20 per person and can be paid by cash, check, credit card (MC or Visa) or on our e-store online at www.cultural-council.org.
