It's a good idea, and one that's been brought up before. As I understand it, we're a little ways away from asking anyone to contribute financially to anything at this point, but should that come to pass, this option is definitely one that should be considered.

I thought that I would at least share this idea and see what everyone else thinks about this.

Right now there's really no one to give any money to and there's no reason to give it to anyone.
Let's see if CoH/Paragon get sold by NCSoft to another publisher first. That's our only real hope for an even remotely professional, continuing version of CoH. And if that happens, you can start subbing/spending in the cash shop again. 
I've had the same thought. I know the Browncoats did quite a bit of charity work to raise awareness of Firefly when it was cancelled (still do, in fact).
I'd be happy to assist in something myself.

Same, we'll have to see what the future holds. I have lots of fan-interest stuff I've been meaning to eBay for awhile like Sandman HBs, some Geiger books, etc. Should be able to generate some cash with those and others. But we'll see what comes of everything.

If the time comes for any fundraising, we'll be spreading the news on every available CoH site to let the players know.
