I think it's the other way around : you can't avoid people sending you the money
. Just collect it and donate it to a worthy organisation then if you feel like
that .

Then it's 300 $ donated to XXX by Pete Galati .

Maybe it's a few less children dying because of hunger then because you did that
; and you can say : "Hey , wasn't that much better than a faster computer that
runs my chessprograms a little faster ?"
