Brain Aneurysm Foundation
With over 3 billion people online around the world, we decided to grow
our awareness and educational reach in 2016 through social media and
our website. The brain aneurysm community has rewarded our efforts.
Engagement on
our Facebook page is
higher than any other
organization dedicated
to brain aneurysms.
35,000 people viewed our
simple graphic brain aneurysm
awareness post. It had 2,000
post clicks and over
1,500 reactions
– now that’s awareness!
Celebrity chef Mario Batali
became an active supporter of the
foundation’s #1in50 campaign.
In 2016 awareness billboards
dotted the landscape.
The response on Facebook
sparked our community
to begin the grassroots
#1in50 campaign.
Over 13,000 people reacted
to our guest blogger
Katrina McCarty’s post.
Our community engaged in a
robust discussion on our
Facebook page and the post
exceeded 2,500 reactions
and comments!
