How to Create and Manage a Facebook Fundraiser
Thank you so much for your interest in setting up a fundraiser to support the rescue animals at CHDR! Your fundraiser empowers you to raise funds for a cause you care about and makes a profound impact for animals in need.
To start a fundraiser go to Fundraisers on Facebook and search Coco's Heart Dog Rescue or click here for more info.
From there you can set your goal and start sharing with your friends and family!
Have writers block? Here is an example:
Want to join me in supporting a good cause? I'm raising money for Coco's Heart Dog Rescue and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support. I've included information about Coco's Heart Dog Rescue below.
Coco’s Heart Dog Rescue is an established non profit 501(c)3 organization. The purpose of CHDR is to rescue dogs destined for premature euthanasia, as well as abandoned, stray and neglected dogs and provide them sanctuary and housing, needed medical care and attention, with the goal of locating and placing the dogs in suitable permanent homes and offer a centre for learning and education to our community to encourage those that profess their love and dedication to animals to take a stand to educate and participate in the cause of rescue and animal health.
Facebook pays all the processing fees for you, so 100% of your donation goes directly to the nonprofit.
