Whatever happened to 'every little bit helps'? ;) I personally send what I feel I can justify in sending at the time, which is the way it should be for everyone, innit? Last donation I gave was a modest £10, I believe, and I didn't think 'what's the point?' Sure, the shopping list might be nice to see, but I hope people don't feel pressured to give beyond their means.
Right, but wouldn't you feel stupid if you sent him $20 when sending him $25 was what he needed to move on to the next step? Granted I'm just using those numbers as an example, but you get my logic.
Likewise, if everyone can see how much he needs for different projects, it gives a more tangible gauge for how much to donate, as well as a better way to see how far along things are at any given point, avoiding the constant "So when will this be done?" questions every three pages.
