I donated for the first time last week. I didn't even notice this email
prior to that (forgot to check the box that says this folder receives
mail). I had had this sense that it was finally time for me to donate to
something and that this was it. I did the 15GBP which was just over
20USD. Hope this helps :) - I would have donated more, but I'm still
just a college student that's looking at a second back surgery.

I debit card is treated exactly like a credit card. See that little VISA
logo on the bottom right? Or whatever you have. The only real difference
is that a credit card is more secure and a debit card lets you enter a
PIN instead of signing, in addition to where the money comes from.
