Facebook also allows us to donate to non-profit organizations through their Facebook pages. Visit their pages and from there you can visit the official website of the Organization to donate an amount. In addition, you will see a Donate Now button next to the news feed post available to these nonprofits.
The American Cancer Society, UNICEF, and other non-profit organizations are part of this, and more needs to be added. You can find the entire list here.

There may be many posts in your news feed, including videos, music, TV, and more, and you won’t have time to read them right away, and it’s not easy to go back to the post you want to read later.
At such times, you can save the post you want to read later. Click the drop-down arrow next to the message and select the “Save” option from it.
Once you get the time, click on the Saved link on the left side of your profile and it will display your saved items.
