Would you like to make a positive impact on your birthday instead of asking for traditional gifts from your friends and family?
Starting a birthday fundraising campaign is extremely easy! It literally takes 3 minutes. We recommend using Facebook’s easy platform with no processing fees. On Giving Tuesday, our Board and Chief Administrator successfully raised raised over $7,000 using individual fundraisers on Facebook. There is so much power in peer-to-peer fundraising.
To get started, go to https://www.facebook.com/pg/KoreanKids/fundraisers/. Click on “Raise Money” on the right top-hand corner of the page to start rallying friends and loved ones to support. You can invite 1 friend or all of your Facebook friends. We recommend setting a short-term timeline to reach your goal – one week up to one month. We have seen others raise money for their whole birthday month, like our Chief Administrator. In November 2017, Grace raised over $1,000 through Facebook donations for KKOOM while also selling personal calendars of her own photos, giving the profits of the calendar purchases to help South Korean orphans.
If you have questions about starting an online fundraiser for KKOOM on Facebook or other online platforms, you can contact our Chief Administrator directly at grace.lee@kkoom.org. Let’s work together to brighten the lives of children at South Korean orphanages.
