Basset Hound Rescue of Alabama recently participated in Alabama Gives Day, a statewide initiative. 1093 NPs were signed up, raising $795,000.  BHRA used FB pages to promote giving to the organization beginning 4 days out and raised over $1000. BHRA was 195th highest in funds raised. Amazing as there were some heavy hitters on the list.  Have any of you had fund raising experiences to share as a result of using FB?

 @moinshaikh  Just send me the details of what you are doing, who for, why and where.

@trudy my uncle run a charity hospital for poor in the city which offers free medical treatments to under privileged of the society. We have multi specialty hospital with 32 beds in ahmedabad city, we provide treatments of all kinds to poor patients. Our main source of income is donation given by people.

@trudy Sort of, my mom started a non-profit thrift store supporting hospice care for cancer patients. She wanted to get more exposure and asked me to do social media marketing for her, it seems to be working pretty well and is bringing in many donated items for her to sell. She uses Facebook to post information about the cause and asks for specific types of donated items based on what the local community is looking for. She also posts new items that come into her shop so that her followers know to come in when there is something they want to buy. 

It’s a little different than just direct fund raising but if you want to check out what she’s doing her page is: Journey Home Thrift
