Generations of Hope has used BitPay to start accepting Bitcoins: http://www.generationsofhope.org/donate/

Let me know if I can provide any more information. I am sure they would be excited to see some actual Bitcoin donations.

How did they come to accept it?

I think all of the press about Bitcoin during the rally pushed them over the edge. The Director heard several pieces on Bitcoin on NPR.

They used BitPay for the implementation, and put a big logo on the Donate page. As with most nonprofits, you can get to the donate page from almost anywhere on the site.

Now, hopefully it pays off for them Wink

$1,000 sent (BTC8.28BTC at the time): https://blockchain.info/tx/1eafe9977ac0954d091475bcead70bd2321672a15d70f4728cc4016f128fa66f

Should we continue contributing for each new charity? And how much?
I'm happy to give more as necessary (thinking $10 worth of bitcoins if $1000 dollars is the current amount per charity)

edit: sent 0.2btc to cover these 2 charities: https://blockchain.info/tx/dc49dcbfde9d6b2d60be8d6942582d1a58fd1e0c965f6b520864480e6f792689
