Facebook Birthday Fundraisers
We’ve seen people using Facebook to dedicate their birthday and raise money for the Foundation Fighting Blindness. If you live in the United States, Facebook has made it easier to do this by giving people the opportunity to create a fundraiser for their birthday directly on Facebook.
Follow this link to easily set up your Birthday Fundaiser for the Foundation.
How's It Work
Two weeks before your birthday, you will see a message from Facebook in your News Feed giving you the option to create a fundraiser for your birthday. You can create a fundraiser for any of the 750,000 U.S. nonprofits available for fundraising on Facebook.
Support the Foundation Fighting Blindness by creating a Facebook Birthday Fundraiser. Once you do, your friends will receive a notification inviting them to support you in honor of your special day.
