>>4001703I disagree, donating to Gura herself would still be better than donating to a charity. Besides charities are known to be scummy, do your research on this topic. Cover and Youtube probably take a huge chunk of everything she earns, and she's not the biggest earner in hololive despite her subs. What I think the best options are:
1. Getting Dande's voice actor or some other (affordable) celebrity that she liked to leave her a birthday message.
2. Leaving a metric fuckton of big superchats for her all at once (I doubt there will be anything to surpass that one Mori stream but you guys can try, I mean you DO love Gura, right?) Even KFP who are vastly outnumbered by chumbuds manage to coordinate and shower their girl with lots of money.
3. Pay a bunch of cowboys to do a ukulele/banjo/guitar versions of her classic BGM and send the videos to her. This only works if you can get a whole bunch of em instead of just one. Other Holos had celebrity messages already, one nobody cowboy would be underwhelming.
4. Pay a bunch of tiny cosplayers to dress like Gura and have them march, make it like a Gura Holiday or something.
5. Start a go-fund me or whatever it's called nowadays for her. With a funny goal that she'll laugh at. Of course, there's very little chance the management would contact the fans to get that money, but it's the actual result of the fundraiser that matters and what Gura will talk about. If management can't accept the money it just gets donated to Gura somehow either by rapidfire superchatting/merch purchases/commission the most lavish fanart or have someone build a fucking small statue of her. Honestly if you can't get Dande's voice this would be my 2nd best choice.
