Title: Non-profit orgs
Post by: Hezekiah1997 on May 25, 2011, 09:25:56 AM
Are there any non-profit organizations taking bitcoins right now? I am just kind of doing this for fun, not a serious profit.

Im busy putting together my own non-profit, read my sig.

Not much to go by but if you were interested in donating that account is setup seperately for the non-profit and its up to you to believe my intentions but I have made it clear so far with a couple of longtime members in this forum on the irc channels if you want to do background checks.

Its tough right now to register for non-profit since here in my country(and Im sure in any other country) to register you need to state how you will receive funds in order to get non-profit registration number, so imagine how it went through with the registrations department when I tried to explain to them bitcoins.

Though I don't know how recent that is.

Really? I know they were asked and rejected it, and they don't say anything about it now. http://seasteading.org/interact/forums/engineering/infrastructure/introducing-bitcoins?page=2, http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=1746.0

It's recent, that's the "official" list and all important ones should be there.

Oh, I could be wrong, wonder what I'm thinking of.
