Good question. I have a recurring direct donation set-up, but maybe donating via the Facebook page will make it more interesting for my friends to have a deeper look (and maybe donate).
Does anyone know what % of the donation via the causes app goes to the charity? I’m guessing it’s not 100%, so I’m wondering if that x% is worth it to have it announced on Facebook. Although I could just announce it myself, I think I’ll do that next time my donation happens.
Causes.com charges 4.75% to cover processing fees, but the added benefit of making your donation so publicly visible using Causes.com / Facebook makes it preferable.
We’re currently only the #22 most supported cause in the “Education” section. A few hundred dollars more would put us in the top 20.
Are we supposed to donate through facebook rather than directly?
YES, please do! It is directly in practice.

Yes, I would recommend that.
