Once your page is looking perfect it’s time to share away to reach more people and to raise more money. Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Snapchat and Instagram are all popular social media platforms and a great way to let everyone know what you are doing and why.
Don’t forget to tag CFC in your social media posts, along with the #PBFORCFC and share/repost our CFC posts too. We often share thank you stories from the children and families we have helped so this is a great way for people to learn more about what we do and how their donations will be spent.
Just Giving has these helpful hints to make the most of these platforms:
Facebook - the most popular social media platform. Don’t forget to tag your friends and ask them to share too.
Twitter – tweet to your followers, message celebrities and influencers who can help to ask for a retweet.
WhatsApp – the third most popular social media platform, message your groups and ask them to help.
LinkedIn – you spend so much time with your work colleagues, so don’t forget about them. Make sure to let them know what an awesome thing you are doing.
Snapchat – your snapchat story shows people what you are doing. Make a quick video explaining why you are raising money and what CFC means to you.
Instagram – put your page in your bio and post images that show how your fundraising will help. Your Instagram story can help people connect to your cause.
