what is held for the debian project, what are other funds and
document the instructions to spend, unlike a private business.
Where and how does Debian-UK not do
to avoid a second party to donate the cash.
Sorry you haven't had much of a straight answer. You have four options:
(1) Credit card donation to SPI via Click and Pledge (Visa, Mastercard;
~3% fee to Click and Pledge) -- see http://www.spi-inc.org/donations
(2) Wire transfer to SPI

As our company greatly uses Debian for all our servers I don't wish to
