This is who we are.
They usually take donations via credit card and need to pay the credit card fees, plus make some kind of profit.

They also do not allow for BTC payments AFAIK.

I was just made aware of a raffle that will be conducted to raise funds for the care and treatment of my Nephew.  You can find the information here.  http://www.rokslide.com/forums/showthread.php?20086-The-Official-Rokslide-Charity-Raffle-thread-for-Tri2Hunt

All nonprofits should occupy the bitcoin p2p currency space already, as it is even more of an obvious sector than the widespread retail adoption we are seeing.  Tax write offs and all plus the potential for projects like Peace Corps, Heifer, etc of further empowerment advancement of its causes by establishing economies in the unbanked parts of the world they constantly are working in.

This site has been used by me on several occasions via my wife. Today I received confirmation that my newest nephew is on there with a very rare deadly disease. After reading through the payment terms and finding a surcharge of $.0.30 + 5% on each donation

I decided to create a Blockchain wallet publicly designated as donations for the Health and Wellness of CB Chappell. ANY SMALL AMOUNT is appreciated no matter what even a retweet, upvote on reddit, or like on Facebook!

I believe we can beat the amount already pledged though gofundme.com with $1 and less donations. Are you up for the challenge? https://twitter.com/vleroybrown/status/497466313648791552
