I don't know which Mike Cero you are posting donations for but it certainly is not the Mike Cero that lives on Mercer Island. I suggest you recheck your "facts".
You mean to tell me that this isn't Mike Cero on Mercer Island:

Sure seems like it - and that his wife Susie gets in on the action, too.
If you need another source, how about these:

I'm pretty comfortable with my facts, thanks. Unless there are multiple Mike & Susan Cero's on Mercer Island.
