good morning gary -


first i wanted to say that i deeply appreciate how much you support the bootstrap community with your info and advice.


i had an inspired business idea this morning and i wanted to see if you think its a viable concept. godaddy has a program where you can click a button to round up your purchases to the nearest dollar with the extra going to a charity they support.


brilliant and simple.


so i wondered if you think theres a sustainable business model in terms of being a facilitator between non-profits and businesses to make it seamless for any business to set up a system like that...for both ecommerce and brick and mortar purchases. it would basically be like putting the give-a-penny take-a-penny concept on steroids.
