Default Re: Seeking Charities To Sponsor

genchan,

Thank you for your question. Animal charities are fine.

If we had done this last month, the payment would have been $25.00 (about 500 posts by members). We hope, however, that the number of posts will significantly increase once we start the sponsorship.

1) Our site is growing at a quite rapid pace and that growth will bring more people posting as the months go on.

2) We have a large number of "lurkers" that visit our site. That is, members who look at the posts and articles and gather information, but don't post themselves. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, but I am sure that a good portion of them will leave a comment or two while reading if they know their post will help a good cause.

3) We hope that members and supporters of the charity we are supporting that month will come to the site and post their questions and opinions to raise more money for the cause.

All these combined will hopefully mean we can donate a much larger sum that $25 to the charity we choose next month.
