Literacy Lambton has an existing multi-platform presence on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Google MyBusiness.

We are a small registered charity that has served Sarnia-Lambton for over three decades, yet awareness remains a challenge. We have a skeleton team and our impact relies heavily on volunteer engagement. All of our mission-related programs are based on community goodwill via private donations, service club and other grants, and our own fundraising efforts. For these reasons, attracting new donors and donor engagement/appreciation is another key function of the Social Media Coordinator role.

This role would first work with the Executive Director to co-develop an annual digital marketing plan building it out to weekly content calendars. This volunteer would then work with CanvaPro and the organization's brand kit to design and schedule weekly social posts for each platform and then engage with online communities.
