Hey guys,
Wanted to see if anyone had some insight or could
point me in the right direction.
I'm considering putting on a 1-day 'Wealth
Building' seminar where 100% of the profits
would help a local Russian boy, named Max, who
needs $100,000 in medical care.
This child has a rare disease “Cruson's syndrome (craniofacial dysostosis.)”
And if he doesn't receive surgery he will die.
The family does not have insurance to cover this
treatment.
I don't want to handle payments coming in and
dealing with merchant account issues since 100%
of the money is going to this child so I'd rather
not have a merchant % taken out before it gets
to Max.
I don't have time to set myself up a non-profit
organization so I thought about working with a
local charity - but I want them to make sure 100%
of the money goes strictly for this child. Also, I want to see the money
go directly for his care and not to his family.
Another thought was a donor-directed charity fund
however I'm not sure this is what I want.
Any ideas, thoughts, etc are most welcome!
Thanks so much,
Yanik
