Default ROFB Charity

They aren't always "not" for charity either. If charities could operate
solely on self motivated private donations they would never have fund
rasiers.

sarcastic tone Obviously I was referring to charitable fundraisers in this
context. /sarcastic tone

Fund raisers are not always for charity Bob. They are simply to raise

funds
for various causes.

Hi Bob - the charity suggestion has been made before in connection

with
rofb
& its Classic functions. Basically we decided that charities are

great,
but
that each individual rofb'er is free to be "charitable" in whatever

capacity
& give to whatever charity he or she see fit to, whenever & whatever

he
or
she decides to give. There are hundreds of fine charities out there,

and
picking one in particular would be a disservice to many others.

I commend you & anyone else that gives to charity from their heart. I

do
feel however, like many others, that charitable donations need not be

made
public.

So, how do you explain fund raisers?

Bob, I think that is an excellent idea! Count me in for any

support
you
or anyone else needs in getting this off the ground.

Thank you John. I delibertaely waited a couple days before any

fruther
comment. I had hoped there might be some suggestions. No personal
obligations to do anything. That would be a personal choice, just

some
some
suggestions for a semi official group charity or even political

action
group
to adopt.

Maybe I would be better to try and start a more structured group and

then
vote on recipients for net proceeds on a case by case basis.

I had hoped we could bank on good will much like RMH manages to help
EKIII.
I'll leave it alone for now. If I come up with a better idea I'll

add
it.
In the mean time I hope others will feel free to make their own
suggestions
good, mediocre, or even sarcastic.
