GET READY for #GIVINGTUESDAY!
Facebook and the
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will
match all donations to the LaGuardia PA, up to $50K total
and up to $1,000 per individual Facebook fundraiser
this
Tuesday, Nov. 28th starting at 8 AM (EST) sharp, while the $2 million matching grant lasts.
We're encouraging parents to set up their own individual Facebook fundraisers for the LaGuardia PA and make their own donations through them to be matched dollar for dollar. This match is open to all nonprofits so will run out quickly please donate as close to 8 AM on 11/28 as possible.
Charitable giving on Facebook is handled by Network for Good, which is safe and secure. All transaction fees will be waived on Giving Tuesday.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
- Go to the top right-hand menu bar of Facebook and click the farthest right icon, the downward triangle
- Click "Create Fundraiser" from the dropdown menu
- Select NonProfit
- Select LaGuardia High School Parents Association Inc (it's listed)
- Select the amount you wish to raise (we recommend $1,000 as that's the match limit) and select when you want the fundraiser to end (make it short, say, 24 hours or till November 30th, as the match funds will run out within hours on 11/28).
- There are a couple of other quick, basic questions
- Drag an image to use as the cover photo for your fundraiser page (We've provided one below that you can save and use, or pick one of your own.)
