Title: Charity Auction -Let’s help the animals of Australia ..
Post by: ChiBitCTy on January 14, 2020, 02:37:26 AM
As an animal advocate I’m sleeping a bit less well at night knowing how devastating the Australian fires have been to their country and in particular their wildlife. I’ve seen too many devastating photos and videos and feel I’ve got to help at least a little bit.

I plan to auction a few items in a couple day’s from now and would like to invite anyone else who wants to help out to donate a collectible or maybe a few Satoshis. I have reached out to several Australian friends asking for charity recommendations and will announce 1 or 2 at time of auction.

We’ve got several Australian collectible enthusiasts here, so let’s help our community out a little !  ( Please contact me via PM or thread if you’re interested in helping out).  Thanks !

Great idea chi - I’ll definitely donate something . I’ll have a root around in my stuff and come up with something to add to the pot.  :) PM you later
Can’t watch the vids / photos - getting to soft these days.
Got relatives over there and the country is in big trouble

I don't know if you have seen this tweet from Alex Saunder (pretty recognized BTC dude in Australia).

I did not see that but thank you for pointing it out !

Thank you everyone who’s reached out and those who offered to donate a few items.

I think we’ve got a great set of collectibles so far.  I will be a guest on an upcoming Bad Crypto podcast to talk about physical crypto and think it might make sense to wait and plug this. Likely a week or so. Plenty of time to still donate. Thx !

Quick update- I am beyond appreciative of the donations that have been offered by a handful of members for this charity auction. I am waiting on a few things to ship to me before I can kick it off, so I wanted to let those whom are donating know as well as give a heads up if anyone else wants to add to this auction, you've still got time.  Couple of our finest coin makers have generously offered up items so I think this should be a great bunch of items and a big win for this cause that needs all the help it can get.

Viral photo many of you have surely seen of some local Australian hero's using their car to rescue as many of these cute slow moving bears as they could.  Inspired me to create this auction so thought I'd share (image is not my own).

Hello there,

We Dutchies want to help.
I think my kitties told me to have a heart.  ;)
Also, if sea level rises, hopefully someone will help us with our wet feet.

What's the timetable? We move slowly, but surely can help.

it's not crypto-related in any way, but it's for a (this) good cause - also a German auction-website is supporting the Australian animals, in this case the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie, by auctioning a Kangaroo Painting (acrylic, canvas, mixed technique); so in case a art-lover is interested ...

cheers

Very cool, thx for sharing! I am still trying to decide on exactly which Australian charities to choose from. I got a few suggestions from a friend of mine who lives there and she's a big animal advocate so likely going with those after a tad more vetting but will check these guys out too. cheers!
