Social Media Fundraising
Fundraising on social media is a simple way to support people impacted by breast cancer while simultaneously spreading awareness of all the programs and services that Living Beyond Breast Cancer has to offer.
Nearly $50,000 was raised through Facebook alone in 2020. The best part about this is that LBBC received every penny. Not only do Facebook and Instagram transfer the fees for you, they also do it for free!
Watch our tutorials to learn how to get started.
Fundraise on FacebookFacebook is a great way to set up a longer-term event, for several days or even a month! It gives you the opportunity to include photos, tell your story, and give frequent updates. You can set a goal and track fundraising, post updated information, and tag friends who have donated.
Facebook took care of all the details, even gave me an example of what to write and provided reminders to contact friends and to thank donors! This is a great way to highlight LBBC on your facebook page. - Kim Jennings
Fundraise on InstagramInstagram fundraising works through stories and is the opportunity to be short but sweet, as you share images and ask people for their support.
And remember: social media fundraising doesn’t just help raise money – it’s also a great way for people to find out about all the programs and services that Living Beyond Breast Cancer has to offer.
