Title: Anyway to donate to ALS with bitcoins?
Post by: gweedo on August 19, 2014, 01:17:27 AM
I really would like to donate some bitcoins, and I would love to do it in the name of Hal Finney. Fortunately I never knew anyone with this horrible disease, but I love bitcoins and Mr. Finney has been in bitcoins since the beginning. As well as being a developer of PGP (which I use everyday). I would love to donate some bitcoins so just point me in the right direction as google has failed me.

Thanks, and I encourage everyone to donate a little bit.

I didn't even think of this, but with the ice bucket challenge raising awareness it would be great to open up ways to donate.

Yep also tomorrow I think I will try to reach out to some of the bitcoin charity organizations like bitcoin100.org and bitgivefoundation.org to see the best way of handling this.

I also want to do the same but I don't know how to do so with bitcoins.

Ok so there is no way but I am reaching out to some the bitcoin charities and seeing how I can make this a reality. I encourage everyone else to do the same.
