Amy Faulkner of The World is Fun

Okay – your elevator speech. In 50 words or less, tell us about The World is Fun!

The World is Fun is a 100% volunteer run 501(c)3 organization devoted to introducing individuals, businesses, and those in need and encouraging them to participate in a creative community that enriches Seattle with the common belief that: yes, the world is fun.

How has social media supported your work at TWIF?

Our target demographic is 20 and 30 year olds so social media is not only a cost effective way to reach our audience but the most effective way for us to reach our audience.

What is next for TWIF and social media?

We’ve started new profiles for our 2013 large scale mural project “Stunning Seattle” which will bring internationally known street artists to Seattle to come work alongside Seattle street artists to create 20 large scale murals around the city. Its kind of fun to talk about art stuff for a change.

What non-profit do you admire in terms of social media marketing and branding?

Charity Water.

What’s the best way for people to get involved with your organization?

What are your favorite Twitter handles (does not have to be work related!)
