Infographics are becoming a valued new trend in social media marketing for nonprofits. Visual designs are a great way to put hard data and information in an interesting, simple and easy to read format. Infographics also makes sharing among different social media networks quick and easy. Luckily, one doesn’t have to be a graphic design expert to be able to create a stunning infographic. Online services such as Infogr.am, Canva, Piktochart and Venngage have made creating infographics effortless. Here are a few tips on creating an impressive infographic.
A good infographic is one that tells a story and provides supporting, useful and interesting information. Creating an infographic about a nonprofit’s cause and the impact it has made on a particular community presents a powerful message. Don’t forget to plug essential supporting data.
When using one of the many infographic online services then this step is automatically done through pre-designed infographic templates. However, creating a custom design tailored to a nonprofit’s brand is always the best option. There is no standard format for infographics so feel free to be creative and show off that great work!
Incorporating fun, interactive pieces to an infographic is sure to get people interested, curious and engaged. Whether it’s using animation, clickable content, or page scrolling, interactive infographics is the key to making data come to life.
Once you finish the infographic, the next step is to make it public. A great way to share an infographic is to embed it as a page on a website. With the rise of social media producing an infographic in a portable document format, or .pdf, has become an outdated practice. That’s why having an infographic embedded on a website makes it readily accessible and easy to share through link sharing or pinning.
Using infographics brings life to online content, validates a commitment to social media, and improves accessibility for donors.

Working with Marshal Whittey at First Nonprofit has been a great experience. He handles our request as a priority and goes above and beyond to resolve any issues we have in a timely manner. Marshall follows through to the end and ensures our needs are met. He has been a great resource for LSC and our “go to” for any tax questions we may have. With LSC transitioning several facilities into one federal tax identification number, First Nonprofit was able to assist and provide guidance with best practices resolving claims to each entity. Additionally First Nonprofit provided knowledge (information materials) and one on one training to HRS group with best practices to handle claims state adjudicated, fraudulent claims, and appeals. And processing information in the First Nonprofit [unemployment claims] system allows for timely information can be collected.
My experience with FNP has been wonderful. Unemployment in general is quite confusing and FNP has simplified the process for us. Everyone we have reached out to or worked with has been very helpful and follows up to be sure we understand the information. I am so happy we made the switch to FNP!
First Nonprofit smoothed the unemployment perils for our organization during Covid. Without the ability to cap our UI exposure, we would not have been able to weather the storm. The program worked perfectly and we have come out of the pandemic ready to forge on. Thanks FNP!
My experience with the FNP has been fantastic. The idea of setting funds aside for the unemployment tax liability is a bedrock for nonprofit organizations like mine, namely ASHBA; what is even more advantageous is having the FNP as a custodian of those funds. 100% recommended!
I would like to comment on my experience with FNP….to date our District has saved $1,000’s of dollars by being enrolled in the First Nonprofit program. My only regret is that we did not know about this method of paying unemployment tax years ago….as I had figured about five years
ago, had we enrolled 15-20 years ago, we could have saved our small school district upwards of $500,000 in payments to IDES. Also we would have had a pretty hefty sum of money in our Reserve Account. Thankfully I attended a workshop hosted by First Nonprofit back in 2015 which got the ball rolling!
I have worked with the First Non-Profit Team for many years, and I appreciate the quick response and care that Cecilia and the team provides anytime I have questions. While there are other providers that may provide like services, First Nonprofit will always be my first choice! I appreciate you!
First Nonprofit has been easy to work with and makes the administrative process easier and smoother. We enjoy working with you.
Luckily for us, our interactions regarding any issues with staffing has been very minimal! I can say that all other interactions with regards to billing, 941 reporting, etc. have been extremely pleasant, accommodating and easy to work with. Kim Ghanayem is always prompt, professional and friendly. Thank you so much!
