Creating a Fundraiser on Social Media

Creating a fundraiser on Facebook or Instagram is one way you can organize your Village around the Carson’s Village mission. Through either platform, you can see the description of Carson’s Village that is automatically added to the fundraising page, but adding a personal message and sharing the post can make all the difference. 

See the tabs below for instructions on creating a Facebook or Instagram fundraiser

Creating an Instagram Fundraiser

You can create a fundraiser for a nonprofit organization from an Instagram post. The fundraiser will be visible in the post and you can find a link to the fundraiser in your bio. The fundraiser will be active for 30 days. You can extend the fundraiser duration or end it at any time.

 
If your profile is public, your fundraiser will be visible to anyone. If your profile is private, only people who follow you will be able to see and donate to your fundraiser.
Note: Fundraisers are only available in select locations. Make sure fundraising is available in your country or region.
