I was thinking about this, I don't know why, but if I may, I might have a suggestion.

How about doing a fund drive four times a year? And do a 'themed' drive like the Valentines Hearts?

Not sure about other's, but I can do 80-100$ a year by spreading it out, that way I am not taking on such a financial obligation, once a year or monthly. And I can just add it to my grocery budget.

I loved giving away those hearts, giving makes me happy but I don't have a lot of $$ to give away, but 20$ worth of hearts to give away was wonderful!

I don't know...maybe it's stupid, but I want to help.
