When you set up a new GivePanel account, a "Birthday" campaign is automatically created for you. This is designed to help you easily manage and engage with Facebook fundraisers who start fundraisers around their birthdays.
Why is there a Default Birthday Campaign?
Facebook fundraisers that are created for birthdays are automatically tagged with a "Birthday" event in GivePanel.
This means that any organic birthday fundraiser will be automatically assigned this event, making it simple for you to track, filter, and manage these fundraisers. You can learn more about how GivePanel updates the event field on fundraiser records here.
How Can I Use the Birthday Campaign?
Since the "Birthday" campaign is already set up in your account, you can quickly filter and find all birthday facebook fundraisers. This is particularly useful for stewarding your supporters, sending thank-you messages, and creating reports to analyse your birthday fundraising efforts.
For more details on how to get started with GivePanel, including thanking and capturing your birthday fundraisers contact information, check out our Getting Started Guide.
If you have any questions about the Birthday campaign or need help with stewarding your fundraisers, please reach out to our support team.
