Thanks for the information. I can’t decide whether to do this or not. It isn’t likely to make much money and it might look tacky. But is it any more tacky than running adsense on a blog? I don’t know. LOL.

JCH, I know what you mean. It’s definitely not going to help you make much money, but if you have room in your sidebar, it can’t hurt. :)

This doesnt seem to work. I added one to my blog to accept donations for our adoption expenses and they asked for proof of our tax exempt status and other information that would only have if you are an official non profit

Jennifer, you have to use your social security number. If you don’t have a business tax ID, then your SSN is what individuals use.
