My Favorite Nonprofit
With My Favorite Nonprofit, it's easier to support your favorite nonprofit organization whenever you buy or sell on eBay - because you decide which nonprofit you see when checking out or creating a listing.
How to designate your favorite nonprofit
Through My eBay:
- Go to My eBay. (You might need to sign in or register.)
- Under the Account tab find your Donation Account.
- In the My Favorite Nonprofit section, use the search tools to search for your favorite nonprofit by name.
Through eBay Giving Works:
- Search for your favorite nonprofit by name in the "Shop By..." section of the eBay Giving Works home page.
- In the search results, click the View button in the "About My Nonprofit" column.
- On your nonprofit's page, click the Save as Favorite button. (You might be asked to sign in to eBay.)
- The organization will automatically be saved to your favorites.
That's it! Next time - and every time - you shop or sell on eBay, you can give a little extra to help your favorite organization achieve its important mission. You can choose as many nonprofits as you want, and you'll see one of them each time.

- If you choose to give, we'll automatically deduct your donation from your PayPal account and our partner MissionFish will forward it to the nonprofit you chose*.
- You can preselect which nonprofits will appear on your checkout page, through My eBay, or let us suggest one for you.

Donate Now through eBay Giving Works
Even if you're not buying or selling on eBay right now, you can still donate to your favorite nonprofit on eBay through Donate Now. Here's how:
- Find a nonprofit in our directory.
- View the organization's About My Nonprofit page. (If you don't see the Donate Now tab, the organization is not accepting online cash donations.)
- Decide how much you want to give* and whether you want to stay in touch with the organization.
- Complete your donation on PayPal. (Don't have a PayPal account? Open one now.)
A receipt for your tax-deductible donation will be emailed to you.
Note: Donate Now is only for cash donations. To pay for items you purchased on eBay, use eBay Checkout. If you're selling through eBay Giving Works, your committed donation amount will be deducted automatically from your item's final sale price and sent to the nonprofit you designated.
*MissionFish takes a small deduction (3.75%) from your total gift amount to help offset processing fees. To ensure that 100% of your gift reaches the benefiting nonprofit, you can add 3.75% to your donation amount – and this addition is also tax-deductible.Learn more.
