Facebook Fundraisers

Facebook has made it easy to create a personal fundraising page to support your favorite nonprofits!

MAKE AN IMPACT

Your monetary gift helps make it possible for us to support and reach out to families, photographers, and medical personnel. Every year we serve more than 4,000 families with the gift of remembrance portraits to help them create lasting memories of their precious baby. Thank you in advance for entrusting us with your gift and creating a Facebook fundraiser.

STEPS TO CREATE

  1. Go onto our main Facebook page (www.facebook.com/nilmdts) and choose “Fundraisers” from the left-hand side menu or click here.
  2. There will be a button on the right-hand-side that says “Raise Money.”
  3. Enter the information for your fundraiser and verify that Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep is in the “Who you are raising money for” section.
  4. Once you have created your fundraiser, one of our NILMDTS volunteers will contact you to collect your information.  Please know that Facebook does not release any information regarding the fundraisers except the amount of the donation. NILMDTS can only see that there was a fundraiser created when it shows up under the list of Fundraisers on our Facebook page.

IN MEMORY GIFTS

Any donations received in honor of or in memory of someone special can be included on the google form that is sent via Facebook Message from one of our NILMDTS Staff Members.  We will be listing the names on our In Memory Gifts post which is shared monthly on our Facebook page.  You can find all of the In Memory Gift listings here.

I’ve had several people ask what they could do to help. In lieu of flowers, we would love for you to consider donating to the Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep organization. Having these photos as keepsakes and being able to share our beautiful daughter to the world has meant so much.

This organization holds a special place in my heart. The portraits that us as families get to take home will never replace the babies that we cannot, but somehow these beautiful pieces of art get to remind us how beautiful our babies were and are.
