I don't know which children hospitals you have down there but I would donate it to that.

Well, I guess it's alright if you compensate your expenses.

As for charity, I don't know much about US organizations, so I'll leave it to more competent people. Just one suggestion though — I'd like it to be something children-related.

I agree that you should reimburse yourself.
I also suggest sending the money to kiki. It's hard to choose though, there are so many worthy charities out there in need of money.

I've seen before that people are a bit reluctant to donate to kiki, since they are going for some 'alternative treatments', but they're doing it to avoid the nasty side effects from chemo and radiation treatments.

Other good charities I know about are two kids cancer charities in Australia,

[EDIT]: Although, I'm now leaning towards a charity related to events in the story (drug addiction, child abuse) would be a great option.

I too think that there isn't anything wrong with you taking the font expenses out of it. It is considered a part of the shipping expenses anyway.
Also you know... Humble Bundle is out so assumingly Humble Brony is going on too.
It shouldn't hold any legal problems when they are a group who gathers money for charity even if not a charity group themselves.

I think a good charity would be The Run for Doug- Stomach Cancer Awareness! :twilightsmile:

We would like to sign up for the second printing whenever you get that ready to go. As for charities - I wasn't in on the first printing but would recommend Amazima. This girl went to Uganda as a HS senior and then moved there and works among the poorest people in the world getting them healthcare, school fees and - at 23 - is mother to 13 orphaned girls. Amazing.

I personally Agree with Bangor
What about something related to the story itself? Like an organization that helps people trying to overcome drug addiction? Or even NACoA (a charity for children of alcoholics)? Just throwing out ideas here.
I think it would be a lot more appropriate, as we a group dedicated to FO:E. Not that there is anything wrong with places like Make-a-Wish.

I have to say, I really like that idea. Donating to a charity that relates to something in the story.
