over there I wrote:

-1 on opengrant.  A tip (or some similar word) is a gesture, and generally a peer to peer gesture, and I think it's that gesture which works.   A grant to me connotes some organization deeming it important to be giving the money. In other words, one feels like something horizontal, and one feels hierarchical. I vote for the horizontal approach.
