Please… Give Generously

Dear Prabhus,
I am urgently seeking sponsors for our new ISKCON charity, The ISKCON Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Cockroaches.
For many years now I have been painfully aware of how our fellow spirit souls in cockroach bodies (what to speak of bugs in general) have been abused, in some cases
almost to the point of extinction.
Much of this abuse has been happening in our own ISKCON Temples.
(Although to be fair, this does not apply to all of them.)
I am appealing for a mere 100,000 donors to each give a paltry £1.00 a week to support this worthy cause.
Donors will receive a signed photo of a cockroach of their choice, along with a weekly update as to the well being of their chosen bug.
Also Mega-donors, or those donating £10.00 a week or more,
will have their name inscribed on a plaque in the new Charity headquarters.
Any cash raised will, of course, be used exclusively for the cockroaches living on the Charity's new custom built 5 star yacht.
And…
in order that they (the bugs) do not suffer unnecessarily, the Charity's yacht will head for Bermuda or a similar destination.
Of course… setting the good example, I will be offering my services as a lifeguard on this yacht absolutely free.
(By "absolutely free" I obviously mean after taking a paltry allowance for food, board, lodging, travel, pension contributions, medical fund, etc.)
I may even encourage others to follow suit. (Not with the allowances, that is.)
Volunteers would obviously have to be suitably dressed to jump into the ship's pool at a moment's notice.
Also… in the interest of health and safety... they should not be older than 25.
May I remind everyone, this charity is non-sectarian and open to cockroaches from any denomination, sex, or part of the world.
So please… open up your hearts and wallets,
give generously,
remember…
there's a little bit of cockroach in all of us.
