Ways to Support Your Favorite Nonprofit (Without Breaking the Bank)

Dec 4, 2025

The season of giving is the perfect time to show love to the organizations making a difference in your community. The good news is, it’s easier than ever to do so right from your phone or computer.

Whether you want to start a fundraiser for a cause close to your heart or help nonprofits get the supplies they need, here’s how you can take action on Facebook, Instagram, and Walmart Spark Good.

1. Create a Fundraiser on Facebook or Instagram

Social media fundraisers are one of the simplest and most powerful ways to support your favorite nonprofit, especially if you do not have the capacity to donate but would still like to get involved. They let you share why a cause matters to you and invite friends and family to give.

On Facebook:

1. Go to your Facebook home page and click “Fundraisers” in the left-hand menu, or visit www.facebook.com/fundraisers.

2. Click “Select Nonprofit.”

3. Type the name of your favorite nonprofit in the search bar.

4. Set your fundraising goal and end date.

5. Add a personal message about why this organization matters to you—stories make fundraisers shine.

6. Click “Create,” and share your fundraiser with friends.

Tip: Add a photo, tag the nonprofit, and give updates during your campaign. Personal touches inspire people to give!

On Instagram:

1. Open your Instagram app and go to your profile.

2. Tap the “+” in the top right corner of your profile and choose “Fundraiser.”

3. Search for and select your nonprofit.

4. Add a caption about why you’re supporting the cause.

5. Tap “Share.”

You can also add a donation sticker to an Instagram Story:

  • Create a Story.

  • Tap the sticker icon (the square smiley face).

  • Choose the “Donation” sticker.

  • Select your favorite nonprofit.

  • Share it with your followers.

Each post or story helps spread awareness, and even small donations can make a big difference.

2. Support a Nonprofit Through Walmart Spark Good

Walmart’s Spark Good program makes it easy to give back while you shop online. You can donate spare change, give directly, or even help provide items nonprofits need most.

Round Up Your Change

1. Visit Walmart’s Spark Good page and sign in to your Walmart account.

2. Search for your favorite nonprofit.

3. Click “Select This Charity.”

4. The next time you check out online, toggle the option to round up your total to the nearest dollar. That extra change goes directly to the nonprofit.

Small acts like this add up to a huge impact.

Donate Through a Nonprofit’s Wish List

Many nonprofits also share Spark Good Wish Lists, which include items they need for programs, trainings, and events.

To give:

1. Visit your nonprofit’s Spark Good profile. You can find it by searching for the nonprofit on Walmart’s Spark Good page and clicking on their name.

2. Scroll down on their page. If they have a Wish List, it should be under “Donate Products.”

3. Browse the items and add what you’d like to donate to your cart.

4. When you check out, Walmart will ship those items directly to the nonprofit!
