Amplifying Community Engagement through Digital Storytelling and Partnerships

CHALLENGE:

Grand Staircase Escalante Partners (GSEP), a non-profit dedicated to preserving the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, sought to significantly increase volunteer participation in crucial conservation projects, including trail maintenance, graffiti removal, and a major riparian restoration initiative on the Escalante River.

MY ROLE:

As Communications Coordinator, I played a pivotal role in driving volunteer engagement by:

Developing Compelling Digital Content: Crafting impactful stories and visuals that showcased the importance of conservation efforts and the positive impact of volunteering, inspiring action and connection with the cause.

Leveraging Social Media for Outreach: Strategically utilizing social media platforms to reach a broader audience, promote volunteer opportunities, and share inspiring stories of community involvement.

Fostering Partnerships: Collaborating effectively with Patagonia Action Works and other organizations to amplify outreach efforts and tap into new networks of potential volunteers.

Streamlining Communication Channels: Implementing efficient communication tools and processes to ensure clear and timely information sharing with volunteers, enhancing their overall experience.

RESULTS:

Volunteer Surge: Over 50 volunteers contributed 400+ hours, doubling participation from the previous year.

Community Connection: Fostered a stronger sense of community and connection to the Monument as more people spent time on conservation efforts.

Successful Partnership: Collaboration with Patagonia Action Works expanded reach, capabilities, funding, and attracted new volunteers.
