The first strike is that you should put the money amount input after the input for what cause they want to support.

Strike two is that greenpeace really doesn't help the world. Their attack on Golden Rice is especially heinous. Golden Rice would save thousands of lives of children in SE asia. Greenpeace's volunteers, these first-world college-educated white kids, haven't taken enough sciences classes to realize that GMOs are a tool that can be used well or used badly. They would like us to believe that all GMOs are vile. And they don't have empathy for people who are living on the brink of malnutrition.
