I had to cover this one mostly out of my own pocket since we are on 0% fees for most of our active miners but full disclosure, we should have a bounty incoming for this to help reimburse me and cover some of the upcoming blocks till donations and new miners can help cover it. I will shortly have a page up and available documenting where your donations end up and who they are sent to.
I was under the impression that the early adopters were not paying the pool 0.5% administration fees but that we were still giving 1% to charity. Are you saying it's not the case? If so, I will gladly add 1% to the additional donations.
