How can you highlight the support of La Hive and the Fonds in your communications?

Once your campaign is complete, take the time to share the success of your project and highlight the funding you have managed to mobilize for it.

Whether at an event, in a press release, interview or on your social networks, these speeches are great opportunities to highlight the support of your community, as well as the support of La Ruche and the Fonds, which contributed to the realization of your project.

To accompany you, here are some benchmarks and practical advice.

Principle of recognition

To simplify things, we propose to remember the following rule:

When mentioning the funding obtained for your project, consider also mentioning the support of La Ruche and the Fonds if you have benefited from the support of one of our programs.

In other words, if you talk about financing your project, it is recommended that you recognize the role of La Hive and the Fund in your communications.

This recommendation applies in particular to public communications such as:

events related to your project;
interviews or passages in the media;
press releases;
posts on social media;
web pages or newsletters;
promotional visuals or presentation materials.

Mentioning La Ruche also recognizes the contribution of the community that supported your project through the crowdfunding campaign.

Examples of mention

Or else

"Funding this project was made possible thanks to our campaign on La Hive and in support of the Fund [name of the Fund]. "
