What is the worst that could happen, if all legitimate charitable requests were approved?
To me, that’s the point. There are lots of good causes, and you never know what will strike a chord with someone.
For instance, I’ve posted a thread the past few years about a charity event I run. I’ve gotten some pleasant replies and nice conversation from it, but no donations. I’m completely ok with that - it’s a pretty specific cause in a pretty specific location. But I put it out there for Dopers in case it hits someone, and because we’re a community that often likes to know what each other is up to.
Pending moderator approval, I will probably post about the event again this year, with updated pictures from last years.

Let me explain the cat with no eyelids thing a little further: The cat is a few months old and belongs to my ex, who found her abandoned in a parking lot at 5 weeks old. She needs reconstructive surgery to form eyelids for her, since her eyes dry out easily and she needs eye drops applied several times a day. This cat will go blind unless something is done for her soon. There is an IndieGoGo campaign for her, and I just wanted to publicize this in the hopes of raising funds for this. I will abide by the admins’ decision. Also, if this is approved, there will definitely be kitty pictures. 
I thought you were joking…:smack:
Lucky, send one of us an email detailing your charitable effort and what you want to do with this.
We’ll look at it and get back to you.
