About us
"Students as part of the solution." #ICANHELP is creating a generation that’s not only tech-savvy but knows how to use Digital4Good. MISSION Empower Digital Changemakers + Promote Digital Safety + Celebrate Youth Innovation Negative online material and behavior are linked to higher levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and suicide in kids and teens. Just because students understand the mechanics of social media and digital technology doesn’t mean they know how to deal with issues like cyberbullying, harassment, inappropriate content, privacy, and safety. #ICANHELP’s mission is to empower students with the tools and training they need to protect themselves, develop their digital media toolkit, and use social media and other digital technologies positively. Through a partnership with students and educators, #ICANHELP delivers powerfully-relevant programming and curriculum to build supportive school communities and develop the next generation of digital leaders and changemakers who use Digital4Good. VISION Our vision is simple, yet ambitions: to grow #ICANHELP and Digital4Good into an internationally-recognized educational nonprofit whose work transforms how current and future generations of students engage with digital media and technology in everyday life to make a positive impact--big or small.

Can social media really be a force for good? Surprisingly, yes! An estimated 29% of people view social media as the most inspiring tool for giving. Imagine reaching a younger audience and strengthening relationships with current supporters—all with a few clicks! But it gets better. 55% of people take action after engaging with nonprofits on social media. Churches have found it to be their most effective outreach method, with 46.1% relying on it. And here's a kicker: Nonprofits spend just $67 on social media ads to acquire a donor. Talk about a high-impact, low-cost strategy! Using social media for a good cause is not only effective but also a powerful way to spread positivity and improve digital citizenship skills. So, how will you leverage social media for good? #SocialMediaForGood #DigitalCitizenship #NonprofitMarketing #CharityOutreach #InspiringChange #CommunityEngagement #SocialImpact #DigitalWellness

🚨 New Blog Alert!! 🚨 You may be familiar with George Orwell’s 1984 and Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 from reading the novels as a student. Today, both novels are lauded as classics of American literature, notable for their critiques of censorship during the Cold War era, an age in which concerns regarding information suppression ran rampant. ➡️ Although the dystopian, Cold-War cynicism that these novels espouse is, in some ways, ironic and melodramatic, their arguments hold considerable politico-ideological weight today. Nowadays, with the prevalence of digital communication, the availability and transmissibility of information exist at incomparable heights. To avoid disinformation and misinformation crises that may arise with this abundance of information, the U.S. government has taken calculated measures to mitigate, suppress, or, in some instances, erase information on social media they deem inaccurate, misleading or insensitive. ✅ Read on in our article, written by Sam Garsha, to learn more about disinformation and misinformation, and how its affecting social media today. #Digital4Good #ICANHELP #Students4Good #Parents4Good #parents #teens #children #students #educate #blog #community #socialmedia #digitalcitizenship #misinformationprevention #disinformationawareness #onlinesafety #socialmedianews
