Today, the National Office is proud to announce the launch of the newest tool in its growing communications repertoire, the NFFE Facebook page.
Facebook, a vast social networking site wherein individuals and groups can interact online, is a powerful tool for communications, organizing, and advocacy of all kinds. With over 350 million active users worldwide, Facebook is a great way for NFFE to engage both current and future members in the labor movement.
NFFE’s page will serve a number of important needs, keeping members informed on the latest NFFE news, legislative updates, events, organizing activities, trainings, and much, much more. In addition, photos of NFFE events will be posted regularly, ushering in a new medium for communicating what the union is doing for its members. Users will also be able to donate to causes such as the Richard N. Brown Memorial Scholarship fund and access links to important information from our brothers and sisters in the IAM.
To become a ‘fan’ of NFFE’s page, simply click here, log into your Facebook account and select “Become a Fan.”You may also find us by clicking on the “Join Us on Facebook” button on the right hand side of NFFE’s website, www.nffe.org.
If you are not yet a part of the Facebook community, contact NFFE Communications Director Cory Bythrow for details on how to get signed up. Guidelines governing the proper use of web and social networking sites will be issued by NFFE National in the coming weeks.
Special thanks to NFFE Office Manager Brittany Paull for all of her hard work in making this Facebook page a reality.
