Good for you. Great cause. I would say no worries. Consider how large the lettering is on some RV's simply advertising the brand. Also the rental RV's are advertising. The camp ground would have to point to an existing rule and I doubt they would have one.

If you are planning a trip and know what campgrounds you are wanting to stay in, why not call ahead and ask about how they feel about what you are planning. If any CGs object, you could plan accordingly and reroute. Good luck!

No...they're are usually a private business that can refuse service at anytime, for any reason...don't need to have anything in writing.

There have been documented cases where an RVer had a commercial wrap on his RV and the DOT considered it to be in commercial service. Just think it through very well, before putting yourself out on a limb. Also, question your insurance carrier about their take on "advertising" on your vehicle.
Exactly, lots of guys that race cars as a hobby have run into issues when the put stickers on there trailers (VP race fuel, STP, etc.). They put the sticker on for fun, not monetary gain, but some LEO's deem this as for profit and fine them for not having all the commercial red tape in order.
Now if this is a registered charity, I'm sure there is a different set of rules. It's up to you to find these rules and play by them. Even trying to do a good deed someone will want money for some regulation.

X2 - I think this is how I'd approach it.
To be honest, I'm less worried about LEOs.

BINGO - Correct Answer. And in the process of planning ahead, you may even garner a free night or two of camping as a good will gesture.
