Cutting through the red tape to help others

I had an inspiration today.
With all of the talk about healthcare soaring and so many millions being uninsured...and then I saw a special about cancer patients being uninsured (That sickened me).
I also saw another special about how only 5-10% of charitable donations actually make it to the intended charity (That sickened me even more!), I thought to myself, "Why don't regular people do something about all of this?"
I mean, for crying out loud, we talk about doing something and we certainly complain about "the system".
So, I've decided to do a social experiment. I want to see how many are just talkers and how many are do-ers. So I started a group on yahoo to see what happens.
Here's the link http://groups.yahoo.com/group/doughn8adollar
After looking it over, tell me if you think it will be a success or failure and why.
Thank you!
