“My mom has struggled with lupus complications my entire life. She has had to fight issue after issue and has stayed strong throughout. Creating a fundraiser was a way to help solve the mystery and honor her strength.” - Christie B.
When your birthday comes around, Facebook will prompt you to support a cause you care about. Choosing the Lupus Foundation of America is a meaningful way to celebrate while making a difference.
If you’re sharing your lupus journey or spreading awareness, you can include a “Donate” button directly on your post to encourage your friends and family to contribute.
You don’t need to wait for a special occasion. You can create a fundraiser at any time, whether it’s to honor a loved one or simply because you want to support the lupus community.
If you’ve signed up for a Walk to End Lupus Now® or other Lupus Foundation of America fundraising event, you can easily link your Facebook Fundraiser to your personal event page to boost donations.
Share updates, milestones, or personal photos on your fundraiser page. Fundraisers with updates or images often see higher engagement and support from your network.
Why should you start a Facebook fundraiser?
Because it's easy, quick, and allows you to raise funds that will make a difference in the lives of millions of families impacted by lupus
You can also use your personal fundraiser as a way to tell your story and bring greater attention and awareness to lupus. It's important to tell others how lupus has affected you and why you have made it your mission to help end lupus. Even those who choose not to donate will learn more about lupus and gain a greater understanding of the disease.
Don't forget that there are other ways to raise funds yourself. Start an event!
What does raising money on Facebook do for the Lupus Foundation of America?
The money raised through your fundraiser supports our mission of improving the quality of life for all those impacted by lupus. And when you ask for donations, it gives donors a connection that we can't offer: you! When the request comes from someone they know, people can give more comfortably and with a greater sense of why their donation is important.
