IRS990/Desc0EDUCATION AND AWARENESS: Project Lyme spends money on education and awareness through developing informational content for printed brochures, social media, newsletters, websites, television, and streaming services. In 2021, our website had 36,119 users and our social media grew to 32,582 followers. We also ran a successful PSA campaign sharing patient stories which received 236,000 views on News Pre-Roll (CNN, USA Today, Fox News), 462,000 views on Hulu, and aired on 52 news channels throughout the country. We achieved this by working with external contractors and allocating internal billable hours to create content, determine strategy, and develop partnerships.
