Action Required: Update Facebook Fundraising Settings by Sept 15

Published

In September, Facebook will release an update to help improve your organization’s ability to manage the administrative rights for your org’s Facebook pages and protect access to your Facebook Fundraising efforts. If you already have the TeamRaiser Facebook integration configured, your organization needs to make some small configuration updates to your TeamRaiser Facebook Integration to help avoid participants seeing an error message when they attempt to connect their TeamRaiser fundraising to a Facebook Fundraiser.

Organizations need to create a Facebook Business Manager account and then add the "Fundraising" product to your apps in the Facebook for Developer Account.

For detailed step-by-step instructions with screenshots, visit the TeamRaiser Facebook Fundraising Configuration Instructions.

Kadesha Washington‍ as your organization doesn't have a TeamRaiser event using the Facebook integration at this time, technically no, but you've attended enough of my webinars to know that I'm going to recommend that you go ahead start the process. :-) Two reasons I recommend this: 1) you won't have to worry that you'll forget when you start setting up your next event, and 2) the Facebook Business Manager allows you to attach additional users to your account. This could be extremely beneficial for your org as you would have a back up person in place to take over should you transition to another role or opportunity. Hope this helps!

If you don't have an active TeamRaiser event, do you have to do this now?
