About the Opportunity

My goal for this Taproot project is to create a simple, repeatable way for our team to run and improve our Facebook and Instagram ads, and to track the results, so we can manage paid social confidently on our own after the project ends.

My Density Matters is a small national nonprofit focused on breast density awareness and earlier breast cancer detection. We recently started running paid Meta ads, and the early results were encouraging, but we are still learning. We work with a modest budget of about $500 per month, so we need to spend carefully and know what is working.

I am hoping a volunteer can help us with four things:
- review how our ads and tracking are set up today and tell us what to improve first;
- build a plain-language playbook for running and improving our ads, covering who to target, how to structure campaigns for our goals, and how much to spend;
- identify key metrics for paid ads with a short guide on what each one means that complements the overall social media metrics and KPIs we have already established;
- and train our team so we can keep running and reading the ads ourselves.

Project Deliverables Outlined:

- Audit of our current ads and tracking. A short written review of how our Meta (Facebook and Instagram) ads and measurement are set up today, what is working, what to fix first.
- A plain-language playbook for running and improving our ads. A step-by-step guide to running Facebook and Instagram ads on our budget: who to target (national awareness audiences plus local audiences for our local events and fundraisers), how to structure campaigns to meet our goals, how much to spend, and how to improve results over time.
- Measurement framework and KPI tracker. A simple tracker or template built around the nine priority metrics, with healthy target ranges and a one-page, plain-language guide what each metric means and what to do when it moves.
A team training session and handoff. A live walkthrough, recorded if possible, where the volunteer teaches our team to run and read the ads using the playbook and tracker, plus the documents left behind so the team can keep going on its own.

I understand a volunteer will share 2 to 5 hours per week over a limited number of weeks, so I am happy to focus the work on what is most useful in that time.

Through working with our organization on this project, the volunteer will support our mission by helping us reach more women with information that can lead to earlier breast cancer detection.

My Density Matters exists so that dense breast tissue no longer hinders the early detection of breast cancer. Dense tissue can hide cancer on a standard mammogram, and many women never learn they have it or that they may need additional screening. We help women find out their breast density, understand their screening options, and advocate for the screening they need. Reaching those women is the heart of our work, and paid social media is one of the most direct ways we have to put this message in front of the people who need it.

This is where the volunteer's skills make a real difference. Every dollar we spend more wisely on Facebook and Instagram ads means more women see our message, visit our resources, and take a step toward finding out their density. By helping us run smarter campaigns and track what works, the volunteer multiplies the impact of a small budget and helps us turn casual scrollers into informed, empowered women who advocate for their own health.

The impact also lasts well beyond the project. The playbook, tracker, and training the volunteer leaves behind become tools our team uses for every future campaign. For a volunteer who wants their marketing talent to do more than sell a product, this is a chance to help women catch cancer earlier, and in some cases that is the difference that saves a life. That is the impact you would be supporting.

My team and I have prepared for this project by getting the groundwork in place so a volunteer can step in and make an immediate difference. Our leadership and the team members who manage our paid ads and social channels are aligned on this project and ready to participate in a kickoff, a midpoint check-in, and a final handoff.

We have already started running paid Meta ads, so this is not a cold start. We have a live ad account, a recent campaign with real results to learn from, and a clear sense of where we are strong and where we need help.

We have gathered the materials a volunteer will need, including access to our Meta Business Manager and ad account, our Facebook and Instagram channels, our analytics, our brand assets and past ad creative, and our event calendar. Our technology consultant is ready to support any access or website-related tasks so the volunteer is never blocked.

We know how we will use the outcomes. Our social and marketing leads will run the playbook for our seasonal campaigns, use the tracker to monitor results, and improve from there, so the volunteer's work continues to pay off long after the project closes.

We are an organized, responsive partner. We come prepared to meetings, communicate clearly, and respect a volunteer's time, so the hours shared with us go directly to work that matters.
