How can I set up money collection for my charity on Facebook?

Hi Bloggermaven,

below you find a quick video tutorial:

I haven't thought about setting up a page for charity. Does Facebook have any safeguards in effect that might prevent scams?

If you use the Facebook application by charity.org, then you can only start a cause for a registered charity. Beyond that, it is up to the authorities to catch the bad apples that skim too much off the top.

So this is something for us who might want to contribute to a charity to keep in mind. It might be best to make sure that the charity is apart of Facebook's Charity.org.

yes..that is the way to look at it chris...you are right there...those of us who wish to donate must first see that the charity is registered..especially if the message comes through a facebook page.
