Activate Newsfeed display and carousel placements featuring urgent “Donate Now” creative, leveraging real patient stories to drive emotional connection and prompt immediate action.
Reach local, high-intent audiences using interest targeting across categories to reach neighbors most likely to donate.
Optimize campaigns in flight toward top-performing creative based on CTR, maximizing engagement while improving overall spend efficiency.
