OGDENSBURG – Much the same way donors can gift cash, stocks, bonds, real estate or other assets, those looking to support the United Helpers mission can now contribute to the organization using cryptocurrency.
United Helpers Vice President of Development Christa Carroll said donations in the form of Bitcoin, Dogecoin, or dozens of other popular cryptocurrencies can be made online at www.unitedhelpers.org/crypto.
Once on the crypto giving page, Ms. Carroll said donors will complete a simple online form, much the same way they would if they were making a traditional gift with their debit or credit card.
“If you happen to be one of the millions of people who have invested in cryptocurrencies, we wanted to make it as simple as possible for you to contribute to our cause,” Ms. Carroll said, citing a report from CNBC that states one in in five Americans has invested in, traded, or used cryptocurrency.
“We are excited to become one of the first non-profits in our area to have this capability,” she said.
This screenshot shows the form potential donors would see upon visiting www.unitedhelpers.org/crypto. Visitors to the page from a desktop will find this form in the middle of their screen, while those visiting the page from a phone or other mobile device may have to scroll down to find the form. |
