Facebook fundraiser

You can create online fundraisers to support the Douglas Foundation through Facebook.

How are the funds transferred?

Facebook uses PayPal Giving Fund Canada as a secure intermediary for all transactions in our country. All donations received through Facebook will be transferred to us within a 45-day period. All donations received will be transferred to the designated charity, in this case the Douglas Foundation.

Fees for personal fundraising efforts vary depending on the country of residence of the event creator. In Canada, this amounts to 2.60% + $0.30 per donation.

Electronic tax receipts will be issued directly by PayPal Giving Fund Canada and sent to the email address linked with the donor’s Facebook account.
