Phoenix...October 30, 2007 St. Vincent de Paul of Phoenix selected Searchmarketing, LLC 
and its iReporter small business online marketing and publishing tool to set its place in history in launching www.247giving.com. Charitable organizations are typically not known for taking a leadership position when it comes to technology, especially Internet related technology like small business blogs, but not St. Vincent de Paul of Phoenix. Like any non-profit organization and small business today, money is tight, especially when is comes to advertising and marketing budgets. St. Vincent de Paul of Phoenix plans to blaze the trail when it comes to the Internet and to be a technology leader with the launch of its new web site, www.StVincentdePaul.net , which was developed by Homepage Success with SEO support from Searchmarketing, LLC. Now, with the launch of www.247giving.com, the St. Vincent de Paul Phoenix chapter can better serve the online community by making it possible for anybody to participate in this interactive online forum by adding their comments and input to this charitable giving blog.
According to Steve Zabilski, Executive Director for St. Vincent de Paul Phoenix, "The blog is representative of the progressive approach we take to serving the community and the needs of the working poor." The blog is leveraging many online marketing tools including YouTube.com with embedded videos to promote examples of corporate volunteering where businesses and their employees help run the Phoenix St. Vincent de Paul kitchen that serve meals to the working poor and distributes meals valley wide every day. Each year, about 10 million pounds of food are processed in St. Vincent de Paul's Reclamation Center.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is using this new online marketing channel to promote awareness for their worthwhile cause and to take advantage of the fact that very few businesses and even fewer charitable organizations are using blogs to market their services and to receive online donations. The 247giving.com blog has global reach with its contributors and is helping to spread the good news about how individuals and businesses can help to support the needy and the working poor through charity and volunteerism in their community.
