There are several easy ways to support AMREF online.

Be wonderfully different and fundraise while you shop on ebay!
 
You can raise money for AMREF when using eBay— it's simple! If you are selling an item, you can choose to donate a percentage of the final sale price to AMREF.

You benefit too, as you will receive a fee credit on your basic insertion and final value fees equal to the percentage you donate. So if you donate 50% of your selling price to a charity, eBay will waive 50% of your fees. Items benefitting charities are listed with a blue and yellow ribbon, which helps you to attract customers.

AMREF’s logo and mission statement will also be displayed on the listing, thus raising awareness of AMREF’s lifesaving work in Africa. For further information, please see the instructions on the eBay website (http://pages.ebay.co.uk/ebayforcharity/sell.html)


You can also make a one-off donation to AMREF via PayPal on eBay.

So next time you splash out online, you'll be helping AMREF bring lasting health change to African communities!

Giving Lots: Philanthropic recycling for the 21st century

Giving Lots aims to recycle 'wasted' lots which go unredeemed after charity auctions. By selling lots a second time through Giving Lots, charities like AMREF can now benefit twice. So, buyers buy once and the charity benefits twice.

That's not all. Kind donors often give an item to a charity which the charity can’t use because it's not staging an event, or the item might not be directly suitable for their supporters. Handled as a lot on this site, it can raise serious funds, because we reach the right people with the right items, at the right time, and at the right price.
