MissionFish helps you support the Museum through trading on eBay!  Here's how it works:  While listing an item on eBay, you can choose to donate a percentage of your sale.  You then select a certified non-profit (PMH) from the MissionFish database.  (If you haven't already done so, you'll need to register with MissionFish.)  You then select what percentage of the final value you wish to donate from that listing.  After the sale, MissionFish will collect the donation, send you a receipt, and send the Museum a check.
