[Q=victorial73] Charities will usually not pay for the maintenance fees.[/Q] Some do, some don't. Donate For A Cause will pay the maintenance fees but, of course, will use the thousands of dollars that you paid them. The money you pay them gives them a year or two's "cushion" to test the viability of that timeshare. That being said, I just don't understand why the owner who wants to shed his timeshare doesn't just pay the maintenance fees for the next few years to the resort and get some use out of it while trying to give it away rather than pay a charity (or Post Card Company) the equivalent of three years' fees to take over ownership.
