Thanks to the generosity of the eBay Community, over $81 million has been raised for charity from listings all around the globe. eBay Giving Works is now shining a Spotlight On A Cause. Throughout the year, we'll be highlighting a variety of different topics to raise much-needed funds for nonprofit organizations working in these areas.
This Back-To-School season, we invite you to support Educating America's Future. Check out http://www.ebay.com/spotlight_education to view a variety of nonprofit organizations who are working to provide tools and resources that help our youth, including Big Brothers Big Sisters, The Boys & Girls Club of America, Junior Achievement, and over 80 other fantastic organizations.
And it's easy to show your support! Simply list an item and donate part or all of the final sale price to one of these organizations, or buy an item that’s been listed by a participating seller. For sellers, this is a wonderful way to help your listings stand out, and for buyers, you have even more great items to shop for - all while supporting a worthy cause.
Spotlight On A Cause is your opportunity to make a difference. We hope you’ll get involved today and invite others to join you as well. Be sure to check eBay Giving Works regularly to find out about upcoming campaigns - please join us in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and stay tuned for more ways you can help!
