The Bungie Community and The Bungie Foundation

I was browsing around the forums when a concept came to me: Is there a way to have the Bungie.net Community participate in supporting The Bungie Foundation. For those of you unfamiliar with it, [url=http://www.bungie.net/Inside/foundation.aspx]The Bungie Foundation[/url] is Bungie's way of giving back to the world. Aimed toward suffering children, The Bungie Foundation takes profit from the Bungie Shop and purchases iPads, which are then filled with kid-friendly content and donated to hospitals in a hope to aid children who are suffering. Now we can already help make a difference by purchasing premium Bungie Swag from the [url=http://www.bungiestore.com/]Bungie Store[/url], but I was hoping to facilitate a way for the community to make a more direct contribution to The Bungie Foundation and its cause. This whole idea sparked from [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=69482384&postRepeater1-p=4#69492418]this post[/url], in which I suggested that users could buy a "token" that would allow for a one-time member name-change. It was an idea to allow people the flexibility of selecting a new name but attempting to reduce the amount of name change spamming. That's when it occurred to me! What if, instead of such profits going to Bungie, the profits went straight to The Bungie Foundation?! 100% Bungie has such a powerful community, and The Bungie Foundation has such a powerful goal. The two are perfect for each other. What do you, the community, think? What other ideas could be implemented to garner aid for suffering children through The Bungie Foundation?
