Desperate for Money - V2

Overview

  • We focus on one story (at first).
  • We write the Red Cross and other aid organizations and ask for a really powerful story.
  • Donors (a.k.a. Saviors) are recognized on the splash page in order of donation size. There is a full savior list on a separate page, also in order of donation size.
  • A target amount is set for the campaign. If it is not reached, the saviors who donated get their money back.

    Is it possible that the name of this idea is starting to drift away from its purpose? Perhaps "desperate" doesn't fit well with a more grassroots, charity-style approach?
