## Used on Types

| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| [DonateAction](https://schema.org.ai/DonateAction) | The act of providing goods, services, or money without compensation, often for philanthropic reasons. |
| [Offer](https://schema.org.ai/Offer) | An offer to transfer some rights to an item or to provide a service — for example, an offer to sell tickets to an event, to rent the DVD of a movie, to stream a TV show over the internet, to repair a motorcycle, or to loan a book. Note: As the [businessFunction](https://schema.org.ai/businessFunction) property, which identifies the form of offer (e.g. sell, lease, repair, dispose), defaults to [http://purl.org/goodrelations/v1#Sell](http://purl.org/goodrelations/v1#Sell); an Offer without a defined businessFunction value can be assumed to be an offer to sell.
