Would a letter to our politicians make it possible to do that. It would not only raise money to hopefully find a cure for rsd but would help raise awareness too. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Normally this is the sort of thing that is organized by a charitable organization. I see them "locally" all the time for a large, regional children's hospital that probably covers more than just our state for treatment. There are also many that are organized by national organizations and do a nationwide, month-long drive of this nature, partnering with as many brands and stores as they can get. I think for it to be successful it would need to be set up through an already existing organization. Anything else could make people a little skeptical about where their money is going and make them unwilling to donate. It's a good idea though, and I think that getting one of the organizations to do it would be awesome.
