Help Us Raise Funds When You Sell & Shop on eBay!
This February and March, eBay Giving Works (eBay's dedicated program
for charity listings), will be shining a Spotlight on Saving the Arts.
eBay is encouraging everyone to raise money for organizations that
foster and exhibit artists' work, including Photographers Without
Borders!
How to Use eBay Giving Works
Of course you can always use eBay Giving Works to list items and
donate part or all of the final sale prices to us. But during
Spotlight on Saving the Arts, eBay will focus special attention on our
organization and the listings that benefit us. It's a wonderful
opportunity to raise awareness and funds for our mission!
Giving to Photographers Without Borders with eBay Giving Works just
takes a minute. The next time you list an item on eBay, simply go to
the Sell tab and:
1) Click "Customize your listing" (it says this form is for
experienced sellers, but anyone can use it)
2) Look for the "Choose how you'd like to sell your item" area and
click the More Options link, then check the "Donate a percentage of
sale" box and click Save
3) Choose "Select a new nonprofit"
4) In the pop-up window that appears, type "Photographers Without
Borders" in the Nonprofit Name or Keyword field
5) Select Photographers Without Borders* and a percentage (10-100%)
you wish to donate to us (please note: there is a $5 minimum donation
if your item sells)
Enjoy the Benefits!
Your listing will benefit from several unique program features that
have been proven to attract more buyers and raise awareness of our
cause such as the eBay Giving Works ribbon and enhanced
search-ability.
eBay Rewards Your Generosity
Better yet, when your listing sells, it will automatically qualify for
the eBay Giving Works Fee Credit Policy! As always, every donation is
tax deductible and MissionFish will provide you with the tax-receipt
under "My Funds Donated" in your MissionFish account.
You can also support us by shopping on eBay! Be sure to visit our
MissionFish page www.missionfish.org/pwob on a regular basis – you'll
find a list of all items currently live on eBay, with part or all of
their final sale price going to Photographers Without Borders!
* MissionFish is the nonprofit that powers eBay Giving Works. If this
is your first time using eBay Giving Works, you will be prompted to
create a free MissionFish account
TOGETHER WE CAN PICTURE A BETTER WORLD!
