1. yep. . .I've been curious though, why do they use # of donations
instead of actual amount of dollars? Can anyone enlighten me?

2. I think it's the classier route
and maybe they just want to hide how much they're skimming from the pot :hide:

6. It's not hard to find a reason to donate
Considering how much time I spend here, it's worth many times more than a car radio that I need

4. I'd guess it's marketing
If people looked up there and saw that DU's raised, say, $56,491, they might be apt to think, "Well, hell — they don't need my 20 bucks." But if it's measured in donations, the reaction's more likely to be, "Yeah, I should donate."

to the 'Miss Beach Waikiki Contest' with all of it. Just sayin'.
