Here&#8217;s how to create a fundraiser, step by step.<\/p>\n<p>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/americanyouthfoundation\/fundraisers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to start <\/a>and fill out the form that pops up, making sure the American Youth Foundation is the beneficiary of your fundraiser. Include how much money you\u2019d like to raise (any amount is greatly appreciated!), and select <strong>Nov. 30, 2022<\/strong> as the end date of your Giving Tuesday fundraiser. Click \u201cNext.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>3. You can change the title of your fundraiser if you\u2019d like. We recommend something clear and simple, like \u201cCatherine\u2019s Giving Tuesday Fundraiser for the AYF.\u201d You can also share your personal AYF story or just use the text we\u2019ve provided for you. Once you\u2019re happy with your title and story, click \u201cNext.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>4. You can change the cover photo to one of your favorite AYF memories or simply use one of the photos we\u2019ve provided for you. Once you\u2019re satisfied with your photo,<strong> click \u201cCreate.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>5. Now it\u2019s time to share your fundraiser with your Facebook friends! On the next screen, click &#8220;Get Started\u201d to invite your Facebook friends to contribute to your fundraiser. Select &#8220;Invite&#8221; next to name to send a request to contribute. You can invite as many Facebook friends as you want. Once you\u2019ve invited everyone you&#8217;d like, click the X at the top right of the pop-up box.<\/p>\n<p>6. Now share your Facebook fundraiser on your personal timeline. Fill in the text box just as you would your Facebook status, telling others why you want to raise money for the AYF on Giving Tuesday. When you\u2019re happy with your text, click \u201cPost.\u201d On the following screen, you can kick off your fundraiser with your own a donation, if you&#8217;d like.<\/p>\n<p>7. You\u2019re all done! Facebook will end your fundraiser on the scheduled day and make sure the donations are sent to the AYF.<\/p>\n<p>If you need assistance, don\u2019t hesitate to email to communications manager Catherine Klene at <a href=\"mailto:cklene@ayf.com\">cklene@ayf.com<\/a>, and she\u2019ll do her best to help.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you so much for helping spread the word about the AYF\u2019s mission! Now more than ever, youth need our programs, and this world needs our youth. Your Facebook fundraiser will provide scholarship support for children who attend programs at our beautiful Miniwanca and Merrowvista campuses as we take on the extraordinary cost associated with operation during a pandemic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thank you for your support!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creating a fundraiser on Facebook is an easy way to support the AYF on Giving Tuesday, and any goal amount is greatly appreciated.
