There is a new grass roots movement taking off across the country, to raise funds for charity. It is called Garage Sales for Charity.org. A very simple effortless way for millions of individuals who have a garage sale to raise funds for their favorite charity.

If you plan on having a garage sale you don't need to do anything special or different, all you need to do is commit to donating a minimum of $50 or 10% or your sales to your favorite charity. Any charity--your local food shelf, church program, local shelter, national charity, wherever you feel it will do the most good.

Garage Sales for Charity does not handle any of the funds donated. They simply act as a central resource for ideas and promotion. The simplicity of this plan is what makes it so appealing. Effortless fund raising for charities during the slow summer months when donations are down. There are no ulterior motives or agendas to promote. There are no million dollar budgets behind this, no expensive tv commercials, no celebrity endorsements. They are not affiliated with any organization, charity or political group.

One person, one garage sale can make a difference. This is grass roots at its best. Garage Sales for Charity would like to keep track of donations and charities so they can post it on their website. They plan on keeping a running total of funds donated. The potential is huge! It only takes 100 people participating every week in every state would raise $1,000,000 a month for charities across the country. This is money they would have otherwise never seen, during the months they may need it the most.

Charities can hop on board by including garagesalesforcharity.org web address in all their fund raising materials, giving the people who they count on the most, one more way to raise funds. Right now they really need everyone's help to get the word out about this program.
