    Can't you login using your own Facebook account?

    You need to log in with your own Facebook account; you're then made the admin of the page and you can switch between them.

    Graham is right.

    I'm the owner of four pages, and an admin on several others: In my experience, uou need to be logged in to a Person's profile before you can create a Page (or a Community or a Group).

    yeah but the bio part of the page is only 150 characters , we need a bigger amount than that

    also seeing as im creator and admin on said page , how do i post as myself and not as page admin ?

    Are you confusing your own bio with the info for the charity page?

    When you go to post on your charity page you should see a dropdown in the top-right corner of the post box. This dropdown allows you to switch between posting as yourself and posting as the page admin.

    On the charity page itself you should have a pile of spaces to hold whatever information you need:

    Timeline / About / Photos / Links / More (videos / manage tabs).

    When you go to post on the timeline, you should see the 'post as' flag that I described above.

    Ahhhhh you've either got the world smallest monitor or your working on a mobile. Go and try on a full PC/browser somewhere, you're never going to see all the options the way you're doing it at the moment.

    Facebook do a fairly good job of making the consumer pages mobile friendly, I guess (and it is a guess) they assume a business or charity is less-likely to be running from a mobile.

    With Pages on mobile, I don't have any many options as I do when using PC - there just isn't space for them.

    I'd always suggest doing setup on a desktop. And any significant content creation (other than just posting photos), too.
