Setting up a fundraiser from your NBCF fundraising page through Facebook is an easier way to share your fundraising page and reach more people. We have had lots of great feedback about Facebook fundraising as the easiest way for people to share their challenge with their family and friends and collect donations. 

If people have donated to me through Facebook, will NBCF still receive the funds?  

expand_more expand_less

Yes, if you have selected ‘National Breast Cancer Foundation’ as your charity of choice, we’ll receive the funds. However, there will be a delay and in some instances, we are unable to see details of who made the donation This makes it difficult to confirm donations attributed to donate posts via Facebook.
