donations!

Alright so. I'm finally set up to take donations either over the internet (with user fees) or at any TD branch (no user fees).

To do it on the internet I'm using PayPal and all you have to do is click on the button on the top right hand page of the blog and you're off to the races. If you haven't got an account its really easy to set one up. As far as fees go, 30 cents of every transaction goes to Pay Pal, as well as between 1.5-2.5% of the transaction. Its not bad, but if you want to make sure 100% of your donation reaches the kids, youre going to have to go for a quick walk.

To do it through TD, where there are no user fees you just have to go to ANY branch in the entire world (or well, Canada and Northern US where branches exist) and give them the Eat to Feed Libeirans Trust Account information.
Bank transit Number: 27522
Account Number: 03556298965
Institution Number: 004

I know the walk is a bit annoying but (to be quite frank), if you think about it in perspective to what these kids go through, it hardly seems like anything. I'm not sure if thats a rude thing to say to possible donors or something but, it is the truth so.. there you have it. I suppose the entire idea of this organization is built on us realizing how good we have it even on the worst of days so, there is one more thing to think about. I find the idea particularly haunting at Christmas time...
