With more than 150 million people around the world connected to a cause, Facebook has launched a new way for groups to raise money.
People raise money for disaster relief, they search for missing children, and they bring attention to the issues they care about. Facebook says it is testing "fundraisers" which is a new tool and is improving their Donate button, to allow people to donate to charities without leaving Facebook.
They say they hope these features help nonprofits reach new supporters, engage their community and get the valuable funding they need to continue their good work. In 2013, Facebook first tested different ways for nonprofits to fundraise on the social media website.
As a company they have also partnered with organizations to create donation campaigns after major natural disasters, like the Nepal earthquake. "Fundraisers" are a dedicated place to raise funds from a nonprofit's Page for a specific campaign.
