FAQ

Do Facebook fundraisers work everywhere?
Please note that Facebook fundraisers are only available in a select list of countries (US, Canada, UK, and most of Europe included). If you do not see the Fundraiser option, the donation feature may not be available in your country. Check out the full list of countries here.

Why Facebook?
Not only will you have access to a wide audience with which you can share your fundraiser, but 100% of your donation goes to Fabretto; no service or transaction fees.

I don’t have a Facebook account, can I still donate my birthday?
Not a problem! You can set up your fundraiser on an alternate platform here.
