Alternative to Paypal - Involves Charity

Hey everyone,
My idea is to have an online payment system like Paypal, but where the
transaction fees go to charity. Maybe not all of the transaction fees,
but 2/3 or more. The company would keep enough to run the business,
but gaining a profit wouldn`t be the main focus. This would need
considerable funding, but at this point its just an idea. I think that
there would be significant appeal to use an online payment system that
helps people every time a purchase is made. The fees wouldn`t be above
the average of companies like Paypal and Bidpay. Another focus would be
superior customer service.
Thanks for looking, and any feedback or knowledge in this arena would be extremely helpful.

excited about this idea, but the problem is I have no idea on how to
start it. Does anyone here know who I should talk to in order to get this idea off the ground? Or if anyone is interesting in maybe partnering up, please PM me.
