Make it easy for me.  Tell me in THE FIRST message what the cause is and open a Paypal account for it.  Give me at least 30 days advance notice if it’s an event or time deadline.  I will not give you a credit card number. I may not have time to go to a link you include. If you need a check, tell me in THE FIRST message who to make it payable to and where to mail it.  If I have to message back and forth about it because ALL the info is not in THE FIRST email, I lose interest and you may lose my donation.
