March 2010 E-News
Dear Colleagues,
Today is an exciting day for us at FCAA.
With this e-news, we are officially launching our new website, Facebook
page and Twitter account! At last
year’s inaugural Annual Gathering we were encouraged by your belief in
our approach to inform and convene our community and partners, and thus,
create the opportunity for collaboration. Our improved online profile
offers an exciting new platform to highlight and share the amazing work
being done every day by the AIDS philanthropic community. We’ve
redesigned the site to make it easier and more enjoyable to navigate and
find information. Here are just a few of the new features:
• An improved Resource Tracking section with top
funder lists (based on the 2008 report) and a new, flash version of U.S.
Philanthropic Support to Address HIV/AIDS in 2008 that can be searched,
downloaded, e-mailed to colleagues or shared online;
• A new FCAA publications section that catalogues
resources by publication type and date; and,
• An RSS feed of FCAA news & publications on
the home page, and links to our new Facebook and Twitter accounts.
We hope you begin to think of our site as a
tool to help mobilize and build awareness for your work. Our
new Facebook and Twitter accounts will also help us reach new funders,
policymakers, advocates and other stakeholder around the world. These
new connections will better position us to achieve our mission to
mobilize leadership, ideas and resources of U.S.-based funders to
eradicate the HIV/AIDS pandemic – domestically and internationally – and
to address its social and economic consequences.
Over the coming months we will be adding new
information and resources to our site, and, and with your support, more
stories and statistics on your work.
Take a look, and tell us what you think! We
welcome your feedback and ideas as we move forward. Please send
comments, ideas, and feedback to sarah@fcaaids.org.
Warmest Regards,
John L. Barnes
Executive Director
