You need separate organisations in different countries because of foreign exchange costs. These make it uneconomic to send small donations across frontiers. Germany may be able to serve the whole Euro zone, but even there there may still be problems. There was an article in the paper recently about an Irish firm which received a cheque for EUR 40 and had it returned because the bank charges would have been more than the value of the cheque. -- Oliver Elphick Oliver.Elphick@lfix.co.uk Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver GPG: 1024D/3E1D0C1C: CA12 09E0 E8D5 8870 5839 932A 614D 4C34 3E1D 0C1C "The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished;" II Peter 2:9
