Melanie May | 3 October 2022 | News
Charity Connect is a free course that offers charity retailers, of all sizes and experience on eBay, training to boost online revenues. The programme will help digitally upskill charities so they can increase their fundraising and runs for 12 weeks from January 2023.
This is the third year of the programme, and eBay for Charity hopes to help more charities raise unrestricted funds this year. Charities that secure a place on the programme will receive tailored training through virtual 1:1 and group support sessions and webinars, as well as e-learning materials and dedicated support on customer service and promoting their eBay shop.
Charities will also receive a free one-year Shop subscription which offers promotional tools, shipping supplies and other perks.
