You mention ‘best practice’ – but it is far from clear why best practice should apply in this case.

What will the money actually do. Does it just sit in a bank so that you can say ‘yes we have 50k that we’ll never use’?

Is it a legal requirement, or just considered a good idea in case of a rainy day?
If the latter – then why not skip it now and just ask for the cash if such a rainy day should come along.

I know I’m not the only one who is asking these questions. Perhaps a more detailed explanation would (if accepted) encourage more donations.

good luck.
