Dsheinem,
PM sent.

In short, I contacted the annual gifts manager over at BFC (where 100% of donations go directly to help families and gifts are 100% tax deductible). She's going to see the best way for us to contribute.

I'm cool with either option or if Luke's investigation turns up something better I'm sure that will be fine too. Just a suggestion if you go with option 1, use solid bars over sensitive information, don't blur.

It doesn't matter to me which way it is done. Option 1 seems to be the best at the moment.
