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 Amateur Athletes, eBay will focus special attention on our organization and the listings that benefit us!

List Now!
- Giving to [NAME OF YOUR NONPROFIT] with eBay Giving Works just takes a minute. The next time you list an item on eBay.com, simply go to the Sell tab and:
- Look for the “eBay Giving Works” field in the Sell Your Item form in the "Choose how you’d like to sell your item" area
- Choose “Or, select another nonprofit you love.”
- In the pop-up window that appears, type “[NAME OF YOUR NONPROFIT]” in the “Nonprofit Name or Keyword” field
- Select [NAME OF YOUR NONPROFIT] 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 searchability.

eBay Rewards Your Generosity
- Better yet, when your listing sells, it will automatically qualify for the eBay Giving Works Fee Credit! As always, every donation is tax deductible and you will be able to get a tax-receipt from the Donation Account area in My eBay.
