Whats the possibility of dividing the $382 between the 2 funds? $191 to each fund.

Fellow Community Members, Due to your efforts at the Community Suite, we managed to raise $562. This was an amazing thing! I am going to send a check out today, in the name of the ColdFusion community. The money is going to be divided this way: 1. $180 to Byteback, an organization based in Washington DC that helps educate homeless people in Web technologies to enable them to get jobs. 2. $382 to a fund to help relief efforts from Sept. 11th. The question is, which relief fund do we contribute to? I'm torn between these two possibilities: - Twin Towers Fund (http://www.nyc.gov/html/em/twintowersfund.html) set up by Mayor Guiliani to help "assist, support, and recognize the families of the members of the uniformed services of the New York City Fire Department and its Emergency Medical Service Command, the New York City Police Department, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the New York State Office of Court Administration and other government offices who lost their lives or were injured because of the tragedies of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center in New York City. If resources permit, the families of other persons who lost their lives or were injured during those tragedies may also be included as beneficiaries." - September 11th Children's Fund (http://www.libertyunites.org/s11cf.adp) "established to promote the long-term emotional, mental and physical health and well being of children and families affected by the September 11, 2001 tragedy. This fund will support services to the surviving children of flight crew and passengers on the airplanes that crashed; clerical workers, secretaries, security, maintenance and others who were lost at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon; children of Fire, Police, EMS and other rescue workers who gave their lives in efforts to save others; and children who reside in the nearby New York City and Washington DC neighborhoods that have been devastated, and other children who have been deeply affected by the tragedy." So -- Any thoughts? Or should we just split the money down the middle here and give to both funds?
