Nat, how about setting a PayPal account or a simple online credit card 
submission? In certain countries bank wiring is a way too expensive 
(US$40 and more) and this sur-charge would better go into the fund 
rather into the bank's pocket. It's out of question to send checks 
overseas, as they get "lost" a lot (from my personal experience) unless 
you use an expensive delivery, but then again, I'd rather give that 
service money to the fund rather to the delivery service.

IMHO, once you set up easier ways for people to contribute money you 
will get many more contributions. It's also a mental issue -- it's much 
harder to write a big check, than to make a big contribution with the 
credit card / online transaction.
