It is also very discriminating to the people who can't donate that much or not at all. 10$ might seem very little for some people, while it will be a month's allowence of somebody else!!!! Please do not turn this into a competition and drop the idea of that t-shirt.
I agree. I remember a story happened to Jesus. He saw a lot of people throwing coins into the treasury chests of a synagogue. But then he then saw a poor widow who throwed two smalls coins of very little value. So Jesus said to his disciples: "This poor widow dropped more than everyone else because they all dropped their surplus, but she dropped all she had for living...."
Moral of the story: There shouldn't be price for the one who donated the more, but the important is to donate what we can afford.
I would donate if I had a Paypal account and money in it...
