WHAT IT IS
“Trading Up For Charity” is an initiative to raise money for charities such as the American Red Cross. Cards are traded one at a time within a given time period. At the end of that time period, the final card will be auctioned and the money raised will be donated to charity.

HOW IT WORKS
When a “Trading Block” begins, a new card to begin the trading will be posted here. The initial card on the Trading Block will typically have little to no personal value to me. When the initial card is posted, you will be able to propose a trade for that card. The card must be authentic, and I must deem it to be more valuable than the card that is featured for trade. When the trade is complete, the new card will be listed on the same Trading Block. The hope is that by the end of the Trading Block we will be in possession of a card that is much more valuable than the initial card. The card that I possess when the Trading Block ends will be auctioned, and a new Trading Block will begin with a new initial card.

WHY PARTICIPATE?
“Trading Up For Charity” is a fun way to see what can be acquired by a relatively low-value card through a chain of trades. It also offers trading card enthusiasts a platform to find new and interesting cards and find other people to trade with. Trading Up For Charity also provides an entertaining opportunity to raise money for those in need. If you’d like to propose a trade, please do so by posting your proposal here!

THANK YOU!
