hi, anyone have any experience with a non-profit storefront?
i am an eCrater seller, and a friend of mine is trying to set up a non-profit.
but they can't find any FREE non-profit storefronts like eCrater works for for-profit storefronts.

any advice? or should i just go ahead and help them set up their non-profit site ( they need to funnel donations through somewhere) at eCrater? hmm...

BEFORE doing that I suggest you read the terms of ecrater.com. IF they are not selling a product it is not allowed. Nothing says they have to sell the product for profit but they have to be selling something.

I'm guessing not since it wouldn't be an actual product. Of course, lots of charities collect their donations by charging for products -- either "overcharging" so they get a donation off the top or charging for items donated..

You might contact eCrater directly and ask about it.

NO they can not list for a donation.
They can sell a T-shirt as an item but they can not have a "Make a Donation" as an item.
