I thought it was a % of the amount "gifted," but if there is a Minimum Fee, your idea would have legs.

Please investigate.

"Whoever donates to me is going to be blessed beyond measure."

I simply cannot accept the fact there are people who will gladly go along with her scheme.

I don't feel sorry for them though.
