Process Charity Mountain! [Suggestion]

Another (wild) suggestion is to have the Process host a fundraising program for charity, with a similar format to the “when I reach XXX$ in donations, I will reveal the next part of the comic” format that is arising. But in masse. Here is how it goes down:

Artists submit (donate) a piece of art, along a target amount (metaphorically, a "height"). When the grand donation pool reaches up to an images target amount, it is revealed to everyone. For example, Artist A puts an image at the 20$ mark and Artist B puts one on the 35$ mark . People will donate and donate, and when the grand pool of donations reach 20$, the first image is revealed. Then, more people donate and when 35$ have been donated in total, the second image is revealed. Then, after a certain amount of time, all of the money collected is donated to a charity and we start anew. There are multiple benefits with this system:

-If Process hosts it, it will get a lot of exposition and a hell of a lot of good propaganda, pretty much for free.
-Artists want exposition. They want to be noticed. This would allow them to obtain that and cause a good impression of themselves, in exchange for a single image donation.
-People want to see material from artists. They’ll pay for it. Plus, there is the additional incentive that their money will go to those who really need it.
-It “decriminalizes” what we do here. Process would be used for good, with the same system firefighters use to sell their erotic calendars.

-It’s good for the charities who need it, goddangit! :P



If Process officially approves and sponsors this, I'd gladly get this up and running on something like Kickstarter, IndieGogo, Gofundme or something.
