By Ina Steiner

January 16, 2009




eBay sellers and buyers gave a record $36 million to U.S. nonprofit organizations in 2008 through the eBay Giving Works program. Donations were up almost 20 percent in 2008, with nearly 1.5 million people supporting their favorite causes. One of the most popular ways to support these organizations is for an eBay seller to donate part, or all, of a listed item’s sale price to a participating nonprofit of their choice. These listings receive a special eBay Giving Works ribbon icon, helping cause-conscious buyers easily find opportunities to support nonprofits while shopping on eBay.
