Thank you for your suggestions.
I already have the site set up to take donations via Paypal = which automatically gives a tax receipt to donors. I am not sure there are enough BTC users who would even donate, but as I originally said, a supporter suggested that if BTC is the wave of the future, accepting this type of currency might bring in new supporters.
I thank everyone for the discussion as if has taught me a great deal. It sounds, since there have been several discouraging posts, that even BTC users do not see it as a viable future currency (which makes me wonder - Why not? - but that is another discussion).
Several people have assumed I am somehow trying to pull the wool over your eyes - which is, additionally, interesting as I only asked for advice to potentially set up a donation portal on a website. If I was *not* in charge of the website, then asking for the advice would be useless. If I *am* who I say I am (the founder/president of a 501c3 charity - and it took about 9 months to achieve that status along with a great deal of my own money for not only filing fees, but the website, printing costs, internet security costs- to try to keep my own house from being burned down because reproductive justice in the U.S. is a dangerous proposition), then I should have chosen a safer charity to align myself with.
I would suggest that rather than seeing everyone with such distrust, that you might stop to think about the reality - because behind the keyboard is an actual person, trying to help other actual people. Trying to find new avenues to help them.
I again - thank people for the discussion and advice!
