How donating gold jewelry works
Donating unwanted or broken gold jewelry is a great, new fundraiser that will generate revenue for various organizations. All items are welcome for testing, even if you’re not sure that it’s gold. Each piece of jewelry is tested for its karat content with an electronic tester to ensure accuracy. The jewelry is then weighed on a digital scale and this weight determines how much money is received. Once the dollar amount is determined, the gold donor may choose how to allocate the funds. The individual may keep the entire amount, donate the entire amount or keep a portion and give the rest to the organization. The organization will profit any way the funds are split.
