The scenerio is this: I run a development agency that develops sustainable technologies to help the poor and I am banking on charity donations from all over the world. Can anyone suggest a reliable payment system or a real (fraudfree) charity programme can can serve Kenya. I am developing my website for this project and I have a donations page I want somebody to donate and click the button DONATE. How does this work? My organisation is real, infact if you are in Nairobi you can drop into our offices along Ngong Road for a cup of Kenyan tea then we can drive to the slums to see the projects. Thank and please help.
