Crypto community to chose which charity Coinidol.com sends $1,000 of scammers’ money.

Coinidol is asking the crypto community to suggest which charity organization should get the donation of $1,000 in Bitcoin. Yesterday, March 20th, the public trial of Jawad Yaqub was closed and community has decided to send the scammers’ money to charity. Now, we need to define the recipient organization of this transaction. 

CoinIdol will search for the right non-profit organisation to send these funds to. That's not an easy task, because there are a lot of non-transparent organisations, that claim they are doing charity. That's why we ask community activists and members of the jury, who have voted before to vote for the right organisation to get the money. 

We ask you to: 

1. vote for one of the charity organisations in the list below or 
2. suggest another non-profit organization that you believe should receive these funds and write about it in the comments below the article. If you have suggested an organisation, that is NOT included in the list below, please, don't forget to give the name of the organisation, a description of it and the website. 

So far, we have received several suggestions of non-profit organizations accepting donations in Bitcoin, where we could send funds to. 

BitGive

BitGive is the first Bitcoin 501(c)(3) nonprofit, giving it tax exemption status at the federal level in the United States. It was founded in 2013 and since then has built a positive philanthropic representative organization for the Bitcoin and Blockchain industry, bridging the gap between an innovative technology and its practical applications for nonprofits and humanitarian work in the developing world. 

BitGive has established strong partnerships and raised funds with well-known nonprofits including Save the Children, The Water Project, TECHO, Medic Mobile, and more. 

BitHope Foundation

The BitHope Foundation is the first fully registered non-governmental organization in Bulgaria that uses only cryptocurrencies for the funding its campaigns. The BitHope.org website hosts a variety of different small-size charity campaigns that can be funded exclusively with bitcoins.

Unsung #HackHunger 

Unsung is a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization fighting hunger. According to the report, Unsung is an online community or social media platform where people can view good deeds in “real time.” The idea is for US grocers, restaurants, caterers or anyone with large amounts of leftover food to donate what would otherwise be thrown out.

Every CD is professionally produced with lyrics containing the child's name and references to all of his or her favorite activities, things, people, and pets. Songs are written and performed in any language in the musical style that the child likes best by a variety of talented professionals. 

Run 2 Rescue
