I want to start a charity project, but I don't know how. Thoughts?

I've been watching Black Lives Matter protests for a month now and have tried spreading information to help people out, but I want to raise money for charities. Is there any way of doing this while directly sending it to that charity?

Pasting from the rules, I myself just read this today

The question wasn't about religion, race, gender, politics or other groups. The question was how to send proceeds from a project directly to a charity.

The only one arguing on this topic has been you. And I asked you to drop it. Like, seriously.

my advice is to directly sent them to the charity and not let them spent money on your game, some people think you would use the money. There is no way to know for sure if they give money to the charity so you have to believe they did it or have them sent you screenshot of the email (with the IRS numbers removed). Then give them a key to have them download it and if they abuse it, you can remove their access.

Also no you cant tax deduct giving money to charity onto your business taxes, that only works if you did the paperwork to have your business money be sent to the charity, no other way around it.

Awesome, thanks!
