The charity spirit died?

    I have an action going on at http://www.webmasters4charity.org and people don't rush to help although I tried to make it public as much as possible.

    People can receive software/services for 25%-50% of the original price and all money will go to the orphan children from my city.

    I understand it is a financial crisis... but please let me know your thoughts and ways to make this action a success.

    Thank you.

    I dont think people want to feed a pidgeon when they are struggling to feed themselves and their families.... If you want someone who can pay try advertising it on some forum for millionaires or something, that might work (if such a forum exists).

    It's not about the pigeons. And more than that, you can help feed them for free by just clicking those links.

    I'm talking about the orphan children campaign.

    didn't notice that one, and clicked on the pics :D, you should have the orphan children campaign at the top of the website with pics, like for the pidgeons.

    Also how does clicking the pics feed the animals? A sponsor or what?

    yes, if many clicks are received someone pays for a link and pigeon food will be bought

    I already did that for dogs... you can see their happy faces here:

    It seems charity isn't recession-proof...

    No charity please, we're broke.
