WhiteBIT, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in Europe with Ukrainian roots.
Whitepay, a solution for receiving cryptocurrency payments and contributions, began a partnership with the Ronald McDonald House Foundation in Ukraine.
Thanks to this, it is possible to help families of seriously ill children and victims of war through donations in cryptocurrency.
Ukraine is one of the three world leaders in the use of cryptocurrencies and is one of the leading states in the level of implementation of blockchain technology.
Since the start of the full-scale invasion, cryptocurrencies have become one of the most effective ways to quickly collect donations for the VSU.
Only for the first day of military aggression of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Finance collected more than 7 million dollars in cryptocurrency to help the army.
So integrating cryptopayments into charitable foundations is an effective way to help those who need it most and as quickly as possible.
In the past, many donors might have been deterred by exchange fees, bank delays, and other bureaucratic hurdles.
Now, thanks to the integration of Whitepay system, you can convert cryptocurrency donations into hryvnias in seconds.
This will help the Ronald McDonald House Foundation in Ukraine collect more international donations for Ukrainian children.
Contributions in 140 cryptocurrencies from anywhere in the world are available on this page for donations.
The main activity of the Ronald McDonald House Foundation in Ukraine is the Ronald McDonald Family Rooms.
Already 170,000 times this program has helped parents and seriously ill children be around in hospitals in comfort.
As the full-scale invasion began, the Foundation also launched programs to support war victims.
The “Food Kits” program is now active: IDP families in frontline and de-occupied areas received more than 190,000 humanitarian kits.
It is thanks to charitable contributions that Foundation is able to help children, so now everyone can support Foundation in an even more convenient way – with cryptocurrency.
WhiteBIT has been actively helping Ukraine in charitable, informational and technical areas since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
The cryptocurrency exchange has been cooperating with the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a year, and with the help of Whitepay cryptocurrency donations from around the world are collected by UNITED24, Serhiy Prytula Foundation, Pills and other charities.
