2010: A record breaking year for eBay for Charity
- 24 January 2011
- UK charities raised over £7.5m last year through eBay for Charity, an increase of 20% on the previous year, and twice the amount raised in 2007. We are extremely grateful for the generosity of the eBay community and the hard work of charities using eBay for Charity.
- The new ‘My Favourite Charity’ function, which allows eBay users to choose in advance the charities they are asked to support, makes users 17 times more likely to donate through eBay checkout. Make sure you ask your supporters to click the ‘Save as Favourite’ button on your eBay for Charity page. Find your charity page

"Besides the new funds raised through our eBay auction, the profile of the charity has been raised immeasurably through eBay for Charity. We're still riding the wave!" — Claire Newman, Development Office, Books Abroad
