Theymos commented on something like this recently:

so I take it that you give permission for people to use 'bitcointalk.org' name to make profit on merchs Cool

Yes, just don't characterize it as "official".

But I don't think you should be using the name in something like this because it probably gives the wrong impression and that they're affiliated somehow. Why do you need bitcointalk in there specifically anyway?

Also, are you a registered charity? Where and how is the money going to be spent and who is responsible for deciding where it goes?

Things like this just seem really vague and ripe for abuse:

We aim to help those who're really in need of help, just like the poor ones residing and making a living in the streets, people who has severe medical cases (like cancer patients) and doesn't have enough money to support their needs, calamity victims and other things that may vary in these kind of situations. And as an addition to this, it will be also a way on introducing crypto to them, to help them and make them realize that crypto isn't a bad thing in which scammers has abused it before and left a very bad reputation about it.

Are you just going to send bitcoins to someone who claims they need some money for medical expenses? Do you have to know them personally? How will you verify worthy candidates and who gets final say on where the money goes or not? How open and transparent is all this going to be?
