Almost all of us have donated items to a charity at one time or another. Its great to get the stuff out of your house and let’s face it, its nice to get that tax deduction too. However, its a less than perfect system. You never know where the items are going or even if anyone wants them and its often times a real hassle to donate. Of course as a charity you have very little control over the process as you’re generally forced to accept whatever people have, rather than just what you need.

Well not anymore. With Zwaggle’s new charity feature, its easier than ever for families who have, to share with families in need. And like everything else on Zwaggle, we’ve worked hard to make it as easy as possible.

Here’s how it works:

• You post an item to Zwaggle and designate it as a charity item
• Then you share it with another Zwaggle family (same as before)
• Of course if you choose “Buyer Picks Up” then you don’t even have to leave your house
• But now a charity of your choosing gets your Zoints
• That charity can then use those Zoints to acquire items they need for their families.
• And wait, there’s more; you get a tax deduction.
• Everyone wins, again!

This great new feature just went live, but the response from both Zwaggle parents and charities, including the Family to Family Network and The Junior League, has been overwhelming. Keep it coming because the more families and charities involved the more everyone benefits.
