Stare at the Sun Charity (Name came from Thrice's song "Stare at the Sun" wink

A little about myself: Since I have completed my quest for all but one of my desired items, I've decided to start a charity. This is still a work in progress, and being my first attempt at a charity, will have some kinks to work out. Please be patient with me thank you.

My Final Quest is for the original Devil's tail. Yeah I know, its crazy. So I thought, since I'm going to have to save a TON of money, why not give some of it away to people who will actually achieve their goals? That's when the idea for this charity began. And I've run with it.

To start off with my donations shall be small, but I'll find other ways to give money to people such as a bumping contest or such soon.

Donators

I am not asking or expecting donations, ever actually. This is more of something I want to do with what little I have, and I hope people understand that.

If you have the desire and would like to donate to the charity, please say so when you send the trade, otherwise I could be confused that you're giving money to me, which I most greatly apprechiate for my own quest, as impossible as it is.

Thank you for your donations to the Charity:

"Stare At The Sun" by Thrice

I sit here clutching useless lists,
keys for doors that don't exist
I crack my teeth on pearls
I tear into the history
Show me what it means to me in this world
Yeah, in this world

'Cause I am due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes
Till I understand or go blind

I see the parts but not the whole
I study saints and scholars both
No perfect plan unfurls
Do I trust my heart or just my mind
Why is truth so hard to find in this world
Yeah in this world

'Cause I am due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes
Till I understand or go blind (till I understand or go blind)

I know that there's a point I've missed
A shrine or stone I haven't kissed
A scar that never graced my wrist
A mirror that hasn't met my fist
But I can't help feeling like I'm

Due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign (waiting for a sign)
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes (and I won't close my eyes)

Due for a miracle
I'm waiting for a sign
I'll stare straight into the sun
And I won't close my eyes

Um... Funds

I started this charity with 10,000 gold, and plan to try to keep the number around there.

At the moment I have: 6,000g

I figure the funds will be half of what I earn in a day, so I should always have a little something to give. To help me from getting confused I'm keeping my own gold seperate on a different account.
