Facebook just made it a lot easier for users to raise money for the causes they care about.
Several months after the social network launched a new "fundraiser (http://mashable.com/2015/11/18/facebook-fundraiser-pages/)" feature for **nprofits to collect donations, Facebook (http://mashable.com/category/facebook/) an**unced it has expanded the tool to individual users. Starting Thursday, users in the U.S. can create dedicated fundraiser pages to raise money for verified **nprofits.
The tool is **w available to 1% of U.S. users — standard for new Facebook products in order to gather feedback and make sure there aren't any bugs — but it will roll out to all U.S. users in the coming weeks.
