If you have been to the Cape Cod Center for Sustainability’s website, www.SustainCapeCod.org (SCC), you have seen OUR Cape Cod Community Directory. The word OUR is italicized because of its importance. SCC has been working with Snap2Help to build a cohesive Affiliate Network to be used to distribute information about Cape Cod–based nonprofits and business organizations, their needs, events, and activities to sites such as CapeCodLife.com, CapeCodVoice.com, CapeCodToday.com, local Chambers, etc. with more coming online soon!
The goal is not simply to provide the information on the Internet, but to reach as many individuals as possible. We make the same information available at many of the top local Internet Sites without encumbering the efforts of these sites to communicate their specific messages. Thus, we provide OUR Cape Cod Community Directory with many different online faces in order to reach a larger audience.
The Community Directory benefits participating organizations by providing an easy way to add their information to the aggregated database. Then, Snap2Help distributes this information and it is thus available at all of the affiliate sites. Some Major features include:
• Simple ‘point and click’ Organization Center
• Directory page for mission, contact information, etc.
• Events calendar management
• Volunteer opportunity matching and management linked to the events calendar
• Distribution of Volunteer Opportunities, Events, Directory for maximum exposure
• Multimedia management
The Community Directory benefits Individuals by providing a database that give readers pertinent information all in one place enabling them to make decisions (whether it be volunteer, civic engagement, something to do tonight, etc.) without the need to jump from website to website. Some major features include:
• Search on organizations by region served, key civic issues addressed, or keywords
• Search on events by categories, keywords, or city
• Watch video or listen to audio to learn more about the community organizations
• Search on Jobs within the local community
• Search on Volunteer opportunities within the local community
We've designed OUR Cape Cod Community Directory to help organizations interested to build strong relationships with individuals who are active and interested in our community. The goal is to connect individuals and organizations who share common interests and agendas to enhance Cape Cod's quality of life. So this is OUR Cape Cod Community Directory.
