Q&A: “Donating in Crypto” with WaterAid and The Giving Block
About this episode
In this episode, Blockchain.com Co-Founder and Vice Chairman Nic Cary shares a recent conversation Marketing Manager Lorna Hutchman had with Pietro Moran, Head of Partnerships at The Giving Block and Sarah Kershaw, Digital Acquisitions lead at WaterAid. Sarah explains the benefits accepting crypto donations as a charity can bring, and the role The Giving Block has played in WaterAid’s crypto journey.
Just in the last 12 months, Ukraine has received roughly $100 million in crypto donations to help the humanitarian crisis in its conflict with Russia and the UN Refugee Agency has been utilizing stablecoins to help distribute aid to those affected on the ground.
Organizations such as The Giving Block help charities get set-up to accept crypto as a form of donation, widening the donor pool of those who can help make a difference.
