What kind of charity are you talking about? Do you want us to say, hey, good for you for having an idea, don't worry about the parts that aren't supported by science, just keep having those great thoughts! Is that the charity you want?

A publisher needs to profit somewhere, so you either have to write something that people will pay the publisher for, or you have to pay the publisher yourself. The best way to get support from a publisher of scientific publications is to write some good science. They love that. 

Iirc, you don't support your ideas very well. Any science publisher is going to want to see the evidence we've been asking you for. What would you tell them?

Most serious science that is published does not generate income for the author(s). On the contrary, it costs money to get published in scientific journals.

Popular science writing can generate some modest income, however. But for good writing that lets non-scientific people understand scientific things.

So if you just want to get your ideas out there, it's as Bufofrog says - publish it here. But keep in mind that you will have a critical audience. If you don't want that, start a blog somewhere and turn off comments.

Do you realize that you need to have something of value for people to encourage them to read your text?

 

Buy a website, with virtual hosting or a dedicated server. The cheapest one costs €4+VAT per month. 16 GB storage/1 Gbps *)

Upload your text there. You will quickly find out that no one is reading it by analyzing the log files..

You need to publish it and advertise it..

Unpleasant but cheap is sending unsolicited junk spam e-mails (but make a database of people who have already received the email!)..

A paid option, but one that reaches people who are more interested in the topic, is Google AdWords. Essentially, you're buying keywords related to your site's content.

Another free option is to spread your site's URL around the Internet, in forums like this one. On some of these you will be banned. In abandoned forums, you won't be. But search engines will find your site's URL, analyze its content, and rank it (e.g., Google Page Rank https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank ).

The best solution is to intelligently combine all three options.

 

*) at least you will be able to use it as an HTTP proxy and/or VPN server and/or private storage (safer than corporate "boxes")...
