Donate Your Birthday to Help Animals – Organise a Facebook Fundraiser!

Posted by on January 10, 2018 | Permalink

Want to make your birthday super special this year? Celebrate it by making a difference for animals. It’s really easy – and the best part is that everything you need is available through your Facebook account. Here’s how to set it up:

1. Get ready.

If you’re over the age of 18 and your Facebook profile’s location is set to the UK or another country where fundraising functionality is enabled, create your fundraising page here. Make sure it’s ready to go on your special day.

2. Set a goal.

Setting a goal is proven to motivate people to pitch in. A popular way to pick your goal is to add a zero to whatever age you’ll be this year – for example, if you’re turning 30, you’d go for £300. Remember that every pound you raise will make a difference for animals, no matter how much you bring in.

3. Get creative.

Personalise your fundraising page by choosing a great photo and writing a short, personal message explaining why you’re using your birthday to help animals.

4. Go viral.

Share your page with your Facebook friends before and on your birthday so that they’ll know what the perfect gift for you will be this year.

5. Celebrate!

Don’t forget to enjoy your big day – and remember to thank everyone for the birthday wishes and for helping you make a difference for animals.


While your birthday comes only once a year, your help can make a lifetime of difference for animals. This year, when you blow out the candles, do more than wish for a more compassionate world for all living beings.
