Re: Phinneas's last post (not quoting because lots of images)
We've chosen to donate through Heifer International because of their great reputation, and are aware that they are other services which donate goats at a lower cost. However, we trust that Heifer is spending the $120 per goat wisely: they include education on how to raise the goats and ongoing support to the families who receive them, which is likely why it costs them more than their "competitors".
To be clear, I have no issue with CoinLab or Heifer International. I just wanted to present a couple facts in the strange Phinnaeus Gage way. Hopefully, no harm.
I did a lot of reading about the "Give a Goat" programs available, and you are correct that some go the extra mile. I'm fully intrigued with this goat thing, but also took into the consideration of the video content of which I linked.
That said, is there any way HI would consider accepting Bitcoin as a donation option on their site? If they did,
Bitcoin 100 is in position to send them
BTC100. That currently equates to donating exactly 11.258333333 goats, but I have some pull and can round it up to 12 goats, for nobody would want .25833333 of goat unless it's a Greek entree.
Later, bud.
