Facebook Live is a great tool to interact with friends in real time and livestream events and activities, sharing important moments as they unfold. You can go live on Facebook to raise awareness about One Mind and inspire your network to support brain health.

To go live:

• Click “What’s on your mind, [Name]?” at the top of your News Feed.
• Click the button with the three dots; select “Live Video” from the additional options.
• To add a donate button to your live video, click the button with the three dots again; select “Add Donate Button”. Search and choose “One Mind” as the designated nonprofit.
• Draft a message to share the purpose of your live video and inspire your friends to tune in.
• Click “Go Live” in the bottom left.

Once you’re live, you’ll see a red “Live” button on the video.

Use these best practices to have the most successful Facebook Live experience possible:

• Ensure that you have a strong Wi-Fi connection.
• Let your network know ahead of time so they can plan to tune in.
• Broadcast for longer periods of time to reach more people.
• Repeat your message throughout the livestream for people who joined later.
• Thank supporters who donate in real time to encourage others to follow suit.
• Share your personal story that has inspired you to support brain health through One Mind.

The donate sticker enables followers who see your donation sticker in your story to tap “Donate” to easily support one Mind. To add a donation sticker to your story, follow these easy steps:

• From your Instagram Story, tap the square face icon to add a sticker.
• Select the donation sticker.
• Choose @OneMindOrg as the nonprofit you want to raise money for and customize the name of your fundraiser.

For best results, post the donate sticker in multiple stories to raise awareness. Remember that a story will only be visible to your followers for 24 hours unless you add it to your profile as a Highlight.

You can support One Mind by starting a live fundraiser on the Instagram app. Just follow these steps:

• Tap the camera icon in the left of your feed.

You can go live with someone else, but you must fundraise for one nonprofit.

Once you end your live video, you can choose to share your live video to your IGTV, download it to your device, or delete it.

For more information, see Instagram’s FAQ page.

Will nonprofits be charged any fees? Will Instagram profit from donations?

Instagram waives all nonprofit fundraising fees, so 100% of donations go to the beneficiary.

How much can someone donate?

People can donate $5 – $2,500 per contribution. However, they can donate multiple times to the same fundraiser.

How does One Mind receive donations made on Instagram?

Once the funds raised for One Mind reach $100 or the equivalent minimum donation payout amount, they become eligible for a payout. Payouts take 2 weeks to process and will occur biweekly as an ACH or direct deposit to the organization’s bank account.
