Title: [2014-12-40] Ronald McDonald House Charity Begins Accepting Bitcoin Donations

Very loosely affiliated with the actual McDonald's.

The part about QR Codes on McDonald's change collectors sounds cool

Yeah they're actually a decent charity, once you get past the McDonalds affiliation. I sponsored someone doing a fundraiser for them, after their friends baby was born with heart difficulties and the family had to spend months next to the hospital while operations etc. were performed. They provide a much needed service, good stuff.

Definitely!  My coworker had to use them, too.  We have donated our time several times at our local Cleveland location.

It all has to start somewhere. When the real McDonalds starts accepting BTC for 10% off Big Mac Combos, mainstreet will be in a BTC craze. ;D
