Anyone with a Facebook account can create a fundraiser to support a charitable organization. Facebook partners with PayPal Giving Fund so you can create fundraisers to benefit the Malawi Water Project.

Your donation is made to PayPal Giving Fund, which is a registered charity in each country or region where it operates. PayPal Giving Fund issues your official donation receipt to your Facebook email and distributes the money to Healthy Lives International Society which is the Registered Canadian Charity that operates the Malawi Water Project.  

When you donate on Facebook in support of the Malawi Water Project, Facebook covers all processing fees so that 100% of your donation goes to the charity.

The Malawi Water Project will receive money raised within 45 days of the original donation on Facebook. Payouts are issued around the end of each month.
