Can we donate a percentage of sale to non-profit organization of our choice?

You cannot set up your sales with a donation option, but once the sale is made you can choose what ever you wish to do with the funds.

There was a few booths in the past (and may still be) that stated their sales support a particular charity or animal rescue group, but there is no formal way to set it up (as far as I know unless things have changed)

I will say that, when I was selling on eBay, I sent up a birthday gift fund to The Ulster Literacy Association, payable through Facebook. It was honored, and I see that similar funds are still being used; I just donated to two of them.

Perhaps Bonanza can arrange a similar plan – I think it would be a nice gesture.

(Incidentally, the Ulster Literacy Association, while truly a not-for-profit organization, is definitely not a nationally known entity.)
