Selling an Item or Just Shopping?

You can help the Scleroderma Foundation by visiting www.ebaygivingworks.com whenever you shop or sell!

How it works:

• Shopping: "Search" items for sale which will benefit the Scleroderma Foundation first when you visit eBay.
• Selling: Sell your items on eBay and designate all or a portion of your sale proceeds to the Scleroderma Foundation. Your tax-deductible donation will be acknowledged with a tax receipt when the item sells. How to sell:

1. Register and set up an account on eBay.
2. Register on Mission Fish* and complete the user agreement to access the Giving Assistant.
3. Create an eBay "Giving Works" listing by using the Giving Assistant on MissionFish. Select a nonprofit from the list of pre-approved 501(c)3 organizations, designate a percentage of sales proceeds to donate, and list your item for sale.
4. The nonprofit has up to one business day to approve or reject their association with your listing. Once approved, the item is listed on eBay where it appears with regular listings but is distinguished by an eBay Giving Works icon.
5. After your item sells, you collect payment directly from the buyer and ship the item.
6. MissionFish collects your donation, forwards your gift to the nonprofit (less a small processing fee), and issues you a tax receipt.

   * MissionFish is a subsidiary of eBay charged with verifying each charity’s non-profit status and processing donations.

Have a pre-summer "on-line" yard sale to clear out the old and make room for the new. Get a jump on spring cleaning and help others too! Gather items from friends and family to add to your sale.
