Hey everyone. I work in the dental field, and my dream since before dental school was to take a few patients a year who's mouth has been ravaged by drug abuse, and provide them with a total smile makeover. The problem is, these patients usually have no money or are on medicaid, and i personally do not have the money to do this type of pro bono treatment yearly as it is very costly and my business is low margin.

Is there a way, like Kickstarter, where I can setup a Bitcoin fund for one lucky patient with an estimated cost of treatment (lab work, materials, etc.). Then, with the patient's consent, I can post progress photos including before and after shots. Perhaps I can even follow up with these patients and show how your Bitcoin donation has literally changed a life!

I think this could be a very gratifying project for myself and anyone involved.

Can anyone point me in the direction of where to start? A Kickstarter type website with Bitcoin would be great. I'd have to speak with my lawyer too.
