- E-Commerce Giving: This is an optional service available to our
members. It is an online donation form that goes on your web site and
allows donors to make credit card gifts to you via a secure server.
Visa and MasterCard donations are processed free of charge and American
Express donations are assessed a low transaction fee of 2.85%. It's a
great service if you don't have your own on-line credit card processing
system. ( Click here for complete information. )
- Vehicle Donations: This is an optional service available to our
members. Through a partnership with VDAC (Vehicle Donations to Any
Charity), we offer you a zero liability vehicle donation system. You
can accept vehicles from anywhere in the country. We handle the towing,
issue a charitable receipt to the donor, auction the vehicle, handle
the transfer of title, etc. All you have to do is receive the money.
Donations can be accepted online, or via a toll free number.
