Giving Works drops minimum donation to a dollar

As of today, Giving Works has lowered its minimum donation to just $1. The eBay.com charity program previously required sellers to donate a minimum of $5 from a charity listing. The automatic collection of money raised has also been extended from two weeks to four, giving sellers more time to collect payment from their buyers before they themselves have to pay the donation. I’ve heard many sellers over the years complain that they’d like to run charity auctions but the minimum $5 was too high, so this should allow a few more people to raise a little for their favourite cause.
