So, I don't read any of those groups, and I could be dead wrong on all of this. But I'll yap away anyway. Off the cuff, I'd say your article could be inappropriate. Granted it's a good cause, and you're not advertising for yourself but for a charity. However, charitable spam is still spam (and I'm not calling your article spam... spam lite, maybe). I understand your point about feeling a sense of community with the above groups; however, I think that massive "Please help..." postings can be just as annoying as the MAKE.MONEY.FAST postings.
