Brilliant, so a rolling fundraiser with the charities rotating every month.
Good stuff!

I don't know if it's been discussed, but has the option of a short delay before the next fundraiser been considered? I only mention as the great flurry of activity and generous donations we're seeing to reach the goal will likely mean that people suffer from some degree of 'charity exhaustion' in the immediate aftermath. I would hate for the next set of charities to miss out as folks are all 'charitied out' for a little while.

Just a thought. Compassion fatigue I think it's termed. I believe the figures charting donations vs long-term or consecutive appeals show a drop off after a while (diminishing returns), but if given even a little time between appeals there was a higher rate of donations.

Either way everyone is doing great as we near the end of this appeal and I think everyone should feel all warm and fuzzy :)
