Re: Does Donate For A Cause Really Care About Helping Charities Or Just Making Profits? (by Bob R.):
How could there be any value for a time share. Even the lawyer who owns DFAC writes on his site he has a so called extremely valuable Westin Kaanapali, but that timeshare is sitting on E-bay for a penny with no bids. The maintenance fees are 300 higher than what you rent it for. Why would any charity want a liability that is a fixed payment worth less than what you can rent it for. They can't be resold or given away. Now that your time share is available to the general public for cheaper than your dues it makes no sense. Even if you could give this to a charity (which I don't believe) it would quickly bankrupt them. Imagine the thousands of timeshares on e-bay being given to an Unicef. They would simply have a giant bill they could never keep up with or sell.
