You can already add external links using Vimeo. (You just need a Plus account, which costs about $5USD a month.)
Here’s an example:

There’s a link to the registration page at the end of the video. (Are you going?) You’ll also notice the embedded video is HD enabled and the Vimeo branding with it’s link back to the Vimeo site have been removed.
In short, Vimeo is already doing what we in the EU want YouTube to do.

Brad, thanks for that information. Vimeo is a great service with high quality video, but we see it used mostly as an embedded video solution — meaning we don’t think there is much traffic discovering new things on the Vimeo site.
The potential with YouTube’s change is that the audience — basically the entire web — is on YouTube and so an engaging, effective video could have real bottom line impact for an organization.
We do not know much about YouTube’s roll-out of the nonprofit functionality to other countries. We are also not happy that religious and political organizations are excluded from accessing the features of the nonprofit program.

Hi Michael, Great post! On a (somewhat) related note, since you’ve been in contact with the folks who run YouTube Nonprofit Program … just wondering if you know how many nonprofits have been accepted into the program?
Eileen, I don’t know. But I will ask! I haven’t seen any published figures around the program.
Hi Michael
I was just thinking about how powerful the positioning of an actionable button can be for many of the emerging performing artists and groups we support. Buttons, or a handwritten piece of paper like yours (love that!), encouraging viewers to comment on a work in progress, answer a call to for artists, send a letter to a legislator etc further blurs the distinctions by empowering the creator, consumer, advocate, and the curious.
Speaking of the curious, do you know why religious and political organizations are excluded from the nonprofit program?
