It took awhile to get through their system, but OCF is finally listed on the MissionFish portion of eBay. What this means is that we can sell there as a foundation without incurring fees, (every little bit helps) and anyone else who sells anything on eBay, can designate that some portion (%) of their sale be donated to the foundation. When you do that, your listing gets a special designator ribbon on it, in your listing the foundation logo and a few sentences about the foundation are both placed for people to see, and of course at the end of the month the foundation gets a check from eBay for the portions of sales that have been donated by sellers, who get a tax deduction for their donation. It's a win-win situation. It's a really great system all the way around given the millions of sellers that are out there. Now it is up to us to let people know that sell on eBay, that OCF is registered, and to tack us on to their listing even if it is only for a small percentage. Over the last few years I have sold everything from motorcycle helmets and jackets to tools, camera gear, etc. on their system and it never ceases to amaze me how simple it is to get money for things that I was about to give away or toss.... I must admit that I am a chronic eBay buyer (hilllaguna) and have bought tons of stuff as well. I hope that you will use the MissionFish part of the eBay system and think of OCF when the opportunity arises.
