i'm doing a charity drive and i was just wondering how many poeple think NS could help out, the charity is through and orgainization called VASHPA, they send doctors over seas to third world countries to restore sight to thousands of poor children who can't afford eyewear or medication. My goal is to raise $20,000 in the next two years. If everyone on NS gave only a dollar, we could raise an ENOURMOUS amount of money. So what do u guys think? we could raise almost $90,000 through our site, its for a great cause, obviously all money would be made out to the charity so none would fall into anybodys pocket.

i don;t know, easiest would be to have people send a dollar bill, but then there would be no way of ensuring i wasn't just pocketing their money, so i guess the best way would be to send a check for a couple bucks already written out to the chairty, maybe theres someway we can like make a group paypal account.

yeah its a wicked good cause, the surgerys the doctors perform is 20 min long at tops, and it gives these kids sights, they just don't have the normal vitamins and nutrients that we have so they lose their sight and don;t have the money to pay for vitamin pills of surgery.
