Unfortunately, I can no longer find the non-profit campaign thread above. It may have been deleted or moved to a restricted section, that's the message I get when I try to access the url. If this is removed for some reason, then you can remove it from the OP.

I hope I'm not missing something, but here's the message when I try to access the thread.

Thanks for flagging this up.
That's a bit strange. I reckon the topic must've been removed by mods (as mentioned by examplens), potentially due to the BitList website containing a list and links to the mixers, but I was sure this was allowed. Maybe the approach is judgmental and depends on each moderator.
I've replaced the link to the campaign topic with the link to the ANN topic.

I like this idea!

And while the idea is great, I think perhaps we can add to it.

Non-profit does not necessarily have to mean non-reward. What if we added non-monetary rewards?

For example: Participants get paid in special tokens, which they could trade in for special Bitcointalk badges (comparable to the pizza badge or art contest badge)?

This would incentivize the participation, I think. And I am sure Theymos would not mind adding a badge or two for the sake of a good thing. And the participants would receive well-deserved acknowledgment from the community for doing charity.

Thanks. That's some out-of-the-box thinking, but I don't think admins would ever go with that, as that would require a lot of effort even just to clarify the conditions of who would qualify for such a badge etc, i.e. is it any non-profit signature (some projects could be controversial or frowned upon), how long would the participant have to wear the signature for, who would be monitoring if they indeed wear it etc.
