There are patron saints of all kinds of things, from fishermen to funeral directors.
But the [Patron Saints Index](http://saints.sqpn.com) doesn’t mention a patron saint
of fundraisers, or even charity workers. So, do you have any suggestions for the
patron saint of fundraising?

And no, we know there’s a patron saint of hopeless causes already! We’ll feature
the more amusing and printable replies. Send in your suggestions to us at hl***@************
