Facebook personal profiles are supposed to be used for and represent individuals, not businesses or organizations. Facebook pages for organizations, businesses, brands, etc. allow multiple page administrators, having multiple custom page tabs and get post and page visitor statistics. If you would like to create a business, brand or organization such as United Way you should have a business page on Facebook, NOT a personal profile.
Please see the Facebook help center or terms pages if you would like more information.
