Hi
I am a graphics artist/author who has a medium sized online following c5000 members. I want all i.e. 100% of my online sales to be donated directly to a charity of my choice, i.e. customer buys product and payment goes directly to the charity. I want this to be totally transparent, ie I dont want to receive payments and then donate separately as people seem to suspect that this is open to abuse.
I can't actually find president where this is done or the means of how to do it. Anyone any experience/ advice.
Many Thanks in advance
Alan

I'd start by speaking the charity concerned. I believe it's possible to have a charity ebay account, for example, so it could depend on their setup, but they certainly need to 'approve' of your sales.Signature removed for peace of mind0

We have set our charity up with Ebay/Missionfish so that ebay sellers can nominate us as their charity when selling items on ebay. When listing an item, the seller can opt to have a %age of the sale go to the charity (up to 100%). We have had artists do this in the past when selling their works.
Another option is to contact the charity of your choice and see if they do online sales (they have their own web shop for example). So you would just donate the goods and the charity will sell them (and get the money). I am also involved with a charity that can do this.0
