<div dir="ltr"><div>Facebook has launched a <a href="https://nonprofits.fb.com/">special site</a> for not-for-profit organisations. The new site teaches nonprofits and activist individuals best practices on increasing awareness for their causes, making fundraising campaigns, and engaging people in charitable action with <a href="https://nonprofits.fb.com/raise-funds/">step-by-step guides</a>. Groups and individuals can also connect with each other to learn successful tactics used by similar causes.</div><div><br></div><div>None of the tools are new; for instance, the Donate button launched in August. But all these tools are being presented together as a one-stop resource for those who use Facebook for charitable causes. For now, the website is available only in English.</div><div><br></div><div>To join the site, you must have a public "Page" for your group or cause. Anyone can add a Donate button to their page, but if they are not officially recognized by Facebook as a charitable cause, a pop-up appears to say the page is "not endorsed by or affiliated with Facebook|".</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://nonprofits.fb.com/">https://nonprofits.fb.com/</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>\\\</div><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Community Media Association</div><div>-- <br><a href="http://www.commedia.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.commedia.org.uk/</a><br><a href="http://twitter.com/community_media" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/community_media</a><br><a href="https://www.facebook.com/CommunityMediaAssociation" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/CommunityMediaAssociation</a><br><br>Canstream Internet Radio & Video<br><a href="http://www.canstream.co.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.canstream.co.uk/</a><br><a href="https://twitter.com/canstream" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/canstream</a></div></div></div></div></div></div>
