Just curious. I think the Ten Commandments monuments are tacky, and the supporters are inherently deceitful in their intent.

Would you donate to a legitimate non-profit that was determined to do this?

Yes
Anything that educates and makes Americans aware of the Bill of Rights is a good idea. Maybe, if the Bill of Rights was better understood Americans would do a better job of protecting them from erosion.

The Ten Commandments tacky?

Unfortunately, the only legitimate non-profit organizations are that I know of are faith-based. And, since faith-based organizations would violate the mythical "separation of church and state" right that's not in the Constitution (or at least not the popular interpretation of "separation from church"), I guess I wouldn't be inclined to donate.
