eBay for Charity — raise funds for a nonprofit through eBay sales

eBay for Charity lets sellers donate a portion (10%–100%) of an item's final sale price to a chosen nonprofit, and lets buyers add a donation at checkout. Registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits enroll through PayPal Giving Fund to receive the donations, which are collected and distributed at no cost to the charity.
