A way of funding art and giving to charity

I have been giving more thought to this experiment and feel that it would be good to to create something new from something old. Sometimes Beautiful, sometimes subversive or shocking.
If money is generated by this project I would also like to find a charity involved in cancer research as I lost my mother to cancer in 2007 aged just 56.

Im thinking about how to spend my pound. In theory it should be quite easy in the early stages but you have to make a good decision at every square or it will fail. I may buy something from a charity shop  paint it or take it apart and remix it. Ill take photos of the it and where I bought it from, how I enhance it and who I sell to.
