Leverage the power of social media & fundraise for pediatric cancer research
Leverage the power of social media & fundraise for pediatric cancer research
Last year Facebook Fundraisers brought in $27,680 for pediatric cancer! Not only a ridiculously easy way to raise money for the charity you love but such a positive way to use social media. Pick the non-profit, set a fundraising goal, choose an end date, write a personal story about why you’re raising money, and give your fundraiser a title. Click “create” and your friends will see the fundraiser in their News Feeds and get a notification letting them know you’re raising for a cause.
Many times fundraisers blow right past the $200 automatically set goal. Know you can set your own custom goal or continue to increase your goal as you meet it!

This Facebook Fundraiser hit us in the hearts when it showed up on Isabella’s Birthday in March! We are so honored Emily chose to raise money for ISF in Isabella’s name for Gia’s birthday (and Isabella’s!). Emily and Gia surpassed their $250 goal and raised $335 during the day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Emily, Gia and friends for your support!
[March 9, 2020] “Today is Gia’s birthday. I’ve been able to enjoy a decade with her – the best ten years of my life. What a blessing it is to be a mom, and to have a healthy child! Today would have been Isabella’s 15th birthday, but she didn’t live to see her 8th. Every year when this day rolls around, I am thrilled to mark another year with my best girl, but that joy always comes with a pause as I think of Isabella.
I got to meet Isabella when I worked at the Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte. She would show up with her mom or dad and help us to fundraise. Even though she and her family were going through one of the most difficult things any family can go through, there they would be, out helping us to raise money for other families who had children being treated at the hospital. I was always in awe of this dedication to assisting others.
I don’t have much to give, but I gave anyway. I gave because I am so blessed to have a healthy child who is celebrating her 10th birthday today. I gave because I truly believe that every dollar matters in the fight against pediatric cancer. I gave in honor of Isabella.”
