The BitHope foundation is a non-governmental organization (NGO) based in Bulgaria. It is created to serve public causes and generate funds for all campaigns hosted by it. It is the only NGO that accepts cryptocurrency for generating funds. A few years ago cryptocurrencies were not trusted even with the leading online businesses.
But the time has proved that probably cryptocurrency is one of the best forms of human intellect. BitHope Foundation is registered for accepting such digital currency donations and 95% of all these funds go to the campaign funds directly. This is a time to cherish that service for people or charity without geographical boundaries. To know about the on-going campaigns by BitHope Foundation, CLICK HERE.
