Title: [IDEA]: How about - we write to charity and nonprofit fundations to accept BTC?
Post by: Maciek on February 17, 2013, 11:19:22 PM
Do you think it's good idea to convince WWF, PETA etc. to accept Bitcoins?
I do.


I will keep sending emails to polish and international organisations with a question if they accept Bitcoin dontations.

If you can provide a list of the world biggest nonprofit organisations and/or their emails - that would be helpful.

And of course - if you send an email too it would be perfect for them - and for us I guess. :)

All an NPO/NGO would have to do is embed a Bitcoin donation onto their respective website, and they would receive $1,000 USD from Bitcoin 100. Depending on their local and non-profit status, BitPay will convert the donated bitcoins into their local currency at zero cost, deposited directly into their bank account.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to PM me.
