Oddbean new post about login | logout Now I feel like I need to be even more careful about where it all goes! Gonna put the original $2K with the rescue team, and then look to spread it out. I want to make sure none of this gets stopped by FEMA. Been hearing really worrying stuff about what is going on up there. Can’t confirm a lot of it but I don’t want these funds stuck behind a bureaucracy. I’ll double verify where it’s going and how it’s used. I’ll try to get video confirmation if possible. 🫡🫡 nostr:note12mn2d0rdyns30jpjphq7cwzvq0jxvs8308rx0spt9gqg2vgk3fssqd54qx
Guy recommend you talk with @Gabe and @AVERAGE_GARY, two BitcoinVeterans guys that have contacts on the ground in NC and can possibly get you connected
Oh that’s awesome! Thank you
Seems like the relief effort has been mostly privately funded and privately performed. Imagine how much more relief and action could be taken if the government didn’t take 30% of every dollar and wasn’t around to interfere with relief efforts…
1000%
Put that wallet on joinmarket before the funds reach their final destination. Please no canadian truckers sequel
I don’t think that’s a problem here. This isn’t a protest
Samaritans purse is headquartered in Asheville that has been out making things happen. Might be another decent spot to donate some cash. https://www.samaritanspurse.org/our-ministry/about-us/
I’ve got them on the list! They are definitely going to receive a good portion. Seems the best place.
Yah locals knowledgeable in helping around the world now helping in their own community. Give em a good chunk. There’s also individual go fund mes for individual families if you want to spread around a bunch of micro donations https://www.gofundme.com/c/act/hurricane-helene
Just a heads up check your nodes liquidity. From alby to your node keeps failing but I can zap others. https://i.nostr.build/pR32ososAFtN7jdJ.jpg
Hey Guy. If you have any funds to spare and looking for credible direct connections, I can vouch for Daniel. Here's their focus right now👇🏻 and also on the ground mobilizing, organizing, prioritizing and distributing resources. https://image.nostr.build/10ce7736c3fd1c74664931575f3fc08a681963a8e86d6f4c17f7a388d21e132e.jpg Here's the PayPal donation link to the non profit https://tinyurl.com/48bwvwdr

A couple of organizations in Yancey county (Burnsville area) and Asheville https://diginyancey.org/
Seeing a lot of positive recommendations for Samaritan's Purse as well
Yeah definitely going to send funds to them. The Bitcoin veterans crew is going to be working out of one of their locations too
