BECOME A MEMBER OF STREETS ARE FOR EVERYONE

SAFE has launched its first membership program along with Honor Statuses! You have all been supporting us through these years, and now you can be properly honored for your contributions!

We launched the Membership Program as a way to recognize you and thank you for your continued support of our organization and create a proud corps of staunch supporters to make our streets a safer place for everyone.

This is a movement to improve the quality of life for you, your friends and family, and each and every person that walks, bikes, or drives on the roads.

Streets Are For Everyone not only talks about making the streets safer, it actually works to MAKE the streets safer. La Tuna Canyon, San Vicente Boulevard, Mt. Gleason, Foothill Blvd., LA River Bike Path, and, most recently, Griffith Park Drive, are all examples of streets and bike paths where SAFE has worked with the City of Los Angeles and community members to make safer streets.

Our programs are crucial for making that difference, and it is your support that allows us to continue forwarding them.

We have made great strides and accomplishments in this effort, like:

  • Reaching over 350 million people through our awareness campaigns

  • Creating SAFE Support - the nation’s first and only support system for victims of traumatic traffic collisions

  • Dropping the incidence of hit and run crimes by 16% in the City of Los Angeles

Streets Are For Everyone is for YOU. We listen to what people like you need and want and help to amplify your voices for real change for safer streets.

BUY AND SELL ON EBAY TO BENEFIT SAFE

With eBay for Charity, you can support SAFE when you buy and sell items on eBay.

eBay for Charity makes it easy for buyers and sellers to support causes that are important to them.

Buying to Benefit Streets Are For Everyone

eBay buyers can donate to their favorite charities in the following ways:

  • Buy items from sellers committed to donating all or part of the proceeds to a charity. Look for the charity ribbon icon in the item description when browsing for items, or browse all listings from Streets Are For Everyone in the Charity Shop.

  • Donate to Streets Are For Everyone at checkout. Browse for our charity and select us as your favorite, then every time you pay for items on eBay, you’ll have the option to also make a donation to SAFE.

  • Donate directly with the Donate Now button. Find Streets Are For Everyone through the Charity Search on eBay for Charity, then donate your chosen amount through PayPal.

Donations made during eBay checkout and the Donate Now button are tax-deductible. Generally, you can’t claim a tax deduction for eBay for Charity items that you buy. If you’re unsure about your tax obligations, you should consult a tax professional about your specific circumstances.

Selling to Benefit Streets Are For Everyone

eBay for Charity has partnered with the PayPal Giving Fund to make it easy for sellers to donate some or all of the proceeds from eBay listings to their favorite charities.

Sellers have two options when listing items to benefit SAFE on eBay:

  • Community Selling: Donate up to 100% of your final sales price to support SAFE. You can customize the donation percentage and the charity you want to support for each individual listing. The minimum donation amount is 10% or $1 (or 1% for eBay Motors listings).

  • Direct Selling: You can associate an eBay username with Streets Are For Everyone. All sales associated with this username are considered direct selling for the charity, and 100% of selling proceeds will benefit SAFE.

When your item sells, you don’t have to do anything. Three weeks after the sale, PayPal Giving Fund will automatically collect the donation from you.

When you designate Streets Are For Everyone in your listings, our organization’s logo and description will appear in your listing description, and we are notified of the listing’s creation.

Charitable fundraising is a highly regulated area, so be sure to read the Charity listings policy for specific guidelines on listing items that benefit charitable organizations. There are some category restrictions for charity listings. For example, you can’t list eBay for Charity items in the Adult Only or Real Estate categories, and you can’t list items that aren’t allowed on eBay. See their article on prohibited and restricted items for more details.
