7 Guess What? Congratulations, you’ve just created a Facebook Page for your nonprofit. There are just four more steps to make your new Page complete. I’ve highlighted each step in the image below:

8 Upload a Display Image (A)
Dimensions: 170 x 170 pixels If the image you upload isn’t a perfect square, it’s okay, Facebook will help you crop it. Your display image is the best place to use your organization’s logo, because this is the image that will appear in people’s Facebook feeds whenever you post something.  To upload your image, simply click the box in the upper left hand corner.  Upload a Cover Image (B) Dimensions: 820 x 312 pixels The higher quality and size of the picture you upload here, the better. This image is only seen if someone comes to your Facebook Page. Use this image to help give your Page some extra branding and display the culture of your organization.

9 Update Your About Us Page (C)
Once you’re happy with how your display and cover photos look, next edit the “About” information on your Page to give people more information about who you are. To do this, click “About” on the left hand side of the screen. You’ll be taken to a Page where you can enter all the information you like about your organization.

While there are many fields in this area, here are the most important ones to add: Address: this is your nonprofit’s mailing address Short & Long Description: here you can write more information about your nonprofit, board, members, and goals Mission Phone Website

11 Get Your First Followers (D)
After finishing steps one through four, you’ll have a basic Facebook Page setup for your nonprofit. Now it’s time to start getting followers who will like your Page (don’t forget to like the Page yourself). Followers who like your Facebook Page will see your photos and posts in their Facebook feed whenever you have a new update. Here are four simple things you can do to get more followers: Use Facebook search to invite your Facebook friends to like the Page. This is located on the bottom right of your Page. Simply type a friend’s name and click “Invite”. These friends will receive a notification inviting them to like your Page. your current subscribers/friends/parents and members with a link to your Facebook Page and ask them to like it. You can find the link to your Facebook Page in the URL as shown below. Simple copy and paste this text into an . Add a Facebook link to your website. It’s a good idea to place this link where your contact information is located. The most visually engaging way to do this is to make the link an image of Facebook’s logo, like how it’s shown below.
