Donate to a nonprofit fundraiser on Instagram
As of October 31, 2023, we partner exclusively with PayPal Giving Fund for nonprofits in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. All donations are irrevocable gifts to PPGF and can only be refunded in certain circumstances as outlined by PayPal Giving Fund’s Donation Refund Policy or when required by law.
When someone creates a fundraiser for a nonprofit on Instagram, you can donate to the cause.
The fundraiser organizer and nonprofit will always see your username and how much you donated. When you donate, you’ll have the option to share more information including your username and amount with the fundraiser organizer, nonprofit, and your own followers.
