Unfortunately I can not donate so I can not join but when I can donate I will! Also if I was to donate and win (winning would probably never happen but still) could I not accept the prize and keep it going towards the charity?
I'm all for the idea of this. I just have one question. Taking money out of donations given to a non-profit for charity purposes can't be legal can it? It seems to me like there could be way too many advanced schemes to take advantage of this. I understand it if any money given to winners is paid for with money NOT given to charity, but the idea of charity partially going to non-charity recipients draws instant attention of a scheme to me...
I'm not saying you intend to manipulate the figures for monetary gain, I just feel like there a laws to keep this from happening.
Any response to this would be greatly appreciated as I'm curious.

Well technically we are non profit so we aren't keeping any money ourselves... giving it to others doesn't mean we are breaking the non profit because we are not keeping it ourselves.

Do you like Minecraft, helping people in need, AND winning prizes? Craft For A Cause is for you then!

Ah, well thanks for clarifying. I wasn't sure of the rules to a T so I appreciate it.
Hey, remember me? I just came to drop by and see how things were coming along; and to let you know that I'm still supporting. How's all the paperwork going? Do you think it can get started after Minecraft's official release?

Hey Nix,
Sorry for the lack of literally everything lately. College has been really busy for me and this semester has been putting a toll on my GPA, so I haven't gotten around to much. I have however found a discussion on Reddit recently about setting up a charity so I sent the OP a message asking if they wanted to join or takeover, etc. We will see how that goes!

We do indeed have some research to do... we just need to make sure we got it all down before we open this up completely.
