Hi all! I am a student at Washington State University, and an active member in the Filipino American Student Association. I was just wondering how I could implement some sort of online donation to our organization through our website. Any information will help!

I designed the website, if you want to see it, go here

Thanks yall!

Do you want to donate to ubuntuforums? Or do you want ubuntuforums to donate to the FASA?

Actually, I was just wondering if anyone has had to manage a website in this way. Where online donations are made to an organization. I just want to know if there are any methods in doing this that will be very secure. Just asking for any experiences in doing this.

I've looked into PayPal and such, but if there is a way to directly do it, I would much prefer that. Thanks!

p.s. It would be nice if our FASA could donate, I'll be sure to bring it up.

Sorry, I misunderstood your question.

A lot of OSS developer's out there use paypal on their site, it seems to be the most popular way of going about that.
Wait for some forum staff to reply, they might have some good ideas for you.

Have you had experience with paypal? Don't customers have to go through membership and such?
