Resources for non profits on Facebook

A great way to market our cause it to utilize Facebook.

FIRST Create a face book business page in the non profit section. Read my blog on how to do this: How to create a business page on Facebook
* Create a CAUSE on facebook that will allow you to apply as a non profit partner and people can raise money for your cause: http://www.techsoup.org/learningcenter/internet/page7416.cfm

To get started using Causes, apply to be a nonprofit partner by filling out the application at www.causes.com/partners/new You’ll get all the tools mentioned above as well as our monthly nonprofit newsletter. And, good news, it’s free! Then, don’t forget to start your cause. The cause is your community of supporters on Facebook – it’s what you use to recruit supporters, create community, fundraise, post videos and picture, and more. To start a cause, go to the Causes application at http://apps.facebook.com/causes and click Start a Cause under “Find Causes.” Your nonprofit can start multiple causes around different issues you work on, for different communities of supporters you have, or to see which ones take off!
