A: Support for the science communication work of Those Nerdy Girls comes in many forms. Here are a few ideas on our wish list!
Those Nerdy Girls aren’t going anywhere. While our work was born in a moment of crisis (a really long moment), the need for accessible, practical science is evident now more than ever. This year we’ve expanded our work with a new Reproductive Health squad to address the urgent needs in that area. The threat of health misinformation will persist in the absence of COVID-19. WE ARE HERE FOR IT! https://dearpandemic.org/donate/
** SHOP
You can also support us financially (and look super Nerdy Cool) by purchasing new NERDY SWAG, available here.
Those Nerdy Girls are committed to translating need-to-know science, training additional science communicators, and engaging with our community to answer essential questions. Financial gifts allow us cover expenses and hire logistic support to keep the science flowing at this almost entirely volunteer operation.
In the New Year we will be welcoming a new social media squad to innovate our platforms & content, hoping to reach an even wider audience with practical and factual science.
** Share our Posts
Believe it or not, your friends and family trust you more than us. Really. The messenger is often as important as the message. Our job is to get you information you need in the right package so that you feel comfortable sharing it within your circles. You can do this by hitting the share button on social media, liking our pages, directing people to our website or social media channels, and by sparking up science-y conversations. You got this! We have your back.
** Sign up for our Newsletter
Social media algorithms control who sees our content, even for those who follow our page. Our newsletter is delivered straight to your inbox twice a week and guarantees you won’t miss any of our content.
** Engage
Our followers fuel this mission. Your questions in the question box and dialogue in the comments provide the blueprints for our next steps. Literally. Each week, our amazing COO shares with us two things: the most common questions and messages of appreciation. These questions and kind words give us fodder and spiritual food to keep on keeping on.
As you consider the above options, please know how much Those Nerdy Girls value each and every one of you. We are grateful for the trust you have in us and your support in this marathon. Together, we can spread practical and factual science near and far.
Love,
Those Nerdy Girls
