Posted below is the information on the Penguin Foundation organization, and donation information. I have worked things out with the developer and we have agreed that when the trade volume increases, even if it's just to donate, then we will have the ability to get penguin coin on their sponsorship page!

I will actually do what I can by saying that any purchase made on my etsy store at https://www.etsy.com/shop/pixskull, I will donate 25% of each sale into buying Penguincoin, and placing it into the donation wallet to connect with this penguin foundation.

I am currently working on this store, and do not have everything up. I can do basically anything you want on glasses, so contact me to ask. Also if you do purchase, place in the notes that you are from Penguincoin just so I can give you credit.

ANY sale, I will donate 25% into buying PENG, and into the donation wallet! So spread the word, even spread the word of the raffle I'm having:

Pixskull LLC is raffling your choice of custom engraved pipe or a set of two Custom Etched Pint Glasses (Your choice on etching). Help us spread the word by spreading our raffle!

We will have these raffles consistently! And you can enter daily!

That will get people at least into knowing about it, so that way your not bugging your friends. I will post on our facebook page that we will donate for the cause.

Your currency is only as strong as the people who stand behind it! I will also post on the dogecoin reddit, and here in the bitcoin forum. Feel free to spread the word as well. The more sales, the more that will be invested into PENG and the more attention it will gain!

Hey everyone,

So I took the initiative and contacted the Penguin Foundation of Australia who is working closely with the knitting for penguins news that just took place yesterday! I'm awaiting a reply to see if they are willing to post up an address that will be specific donations for their cause, and what it takes to tie in together

Here's the link to the recent article if you guys havn't seen it yet http://www.oregonlive.com/knitting/index.ssf/2014/03/penguin_sweaters_yes_theyre_re.html

Me and bitcoindirect are still making contact with a number of charities and are still waiting for a reply, but we do have a donation wallet setup which you can kindly donate to and i have put bitcoindirect in full responsibility of this.
I am working on a number off different sources to try and get peng some media attention and hopefully drive more miners and investors our way.

I am looking for a someone to Make a chinese Pool for Penguincoin and also someone who can speak chinese so please make contact with me.

Happy mining fellow PENGS!

This is great work from a fellow Penguincoin member and i fully support this 100%. Lets really get behind this project and give it the attention it deserves.

Doing things like what Bitcoindirect is doing is what will make Peng a success.

You can make your donations now.
