Title: Confused about bitcoin100
Post by: ankles on August 23, 2013, 07:45:33 PM
Hi

I've been helping a friend set up a new website to help victims of domestic violence to talk about their stories anonymously. A lot of victims are isolated, afraid to talk about the abuse and violence for fear of being blamed, that their children will be taken away, that they may not be taken seriously, or many many other reasons. This site aims to help people share stories and build a supportive community and improve understanding for professionals of the issues that victims face. The website is http://everydaydva.org.

I didn't really find too many answers on the bitcoin100.org about how the scheme works... so here are some questions. Sorry if there are answers on the forum but I find it fairly difficult to understand the scheme.

It is not a registered charity, but a bank account for the organisation is being set up. It is also based in the UK. Does this count as eligible? What other conditions are there? If bitcoin can help the organisation it would be amazing and could change the lives of the many silent and suffering victims of domestic violence, it would be totally amazing

Thanks

Alex

You can read more in the Bitcoin100 thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=52543.0

(I do not speak for the Bitcoin100, you might want to contact forum user Rassah for more information)

Having it registered as a charity would be a good idea.

To receive funds from the bitcoin100 you must add a bitcoin donation option to your website.

Thanks - I can't post to that thread, only the newbie thread. So can someone help? Perhaps add EverydayDVA to that list, or enable me to post to it?
