Check out the great article written about CharityMiningPools on cryptoarticles.com.  Much thanks to the author

Still lots of spots available for the 50 first miners promotion on each coin. 

Let's build this thing together and give the crypto currency community some more positive news to work with.

Stop wasting all your hashing power and mine while supporting a good cause. 

Hi Connie, thanks for the post.  I was going to reach out to the BitGive Foundation to let you all now that we are here and working to gain some support for your organization.

We launched only a few days ago and are now just trying to get the word out there and hopefully gain some miners to get things rolling.  I will most likely extend the BitGive Foundation donations into March since we really haven't gotten any miners yet to raise donations.  Plans in the future will allow the individual miners to choose where they wish to donate on their own.  I can guarantee that the BitGive Foundation will be one of their options.

Promoting is the tough part right now, and I'm going to be working hard over the next little while to get the word out about the new pool.  Anything you or anyone else can do would be greatly appreciated.

So far I've gained some real good support from the Noblecoin founders who just last night posted us at the top of their available pools list.  Very happy to gain their support and looking forward to working with them.


Cheers,
CharityMiningPools

NOBLECOIN has been added to the pool!

NOBLECOIN = https://nobl.charityminingpools.com

Hi Paul, thanks for the post.  I will certainly consider adding this as a future recipient.

Working on bringing in Noblecoin.  Should have it up and running tonight.  I'll post in here when it's ready to go.

Excellent idea. Once you add NobleCoin I'll switch my rig over.

Actually that is a future feature that I want to implement.  Want to add the ability for the miners to choose a drop down list of recipients on their account pages.  In the works, no time frame on implementation as it's going to take a lot of customization to achieve this.

Very cool. It would be neat if we were able to choose which charity our donation was sent to based on which coin we are mining. Based on that picklist, it would just send the funds to the associated donation address.

Awesome, I'll certainly look into this and add them in.  Thanks for the feedback guys, hope to see the pool take off and grow.  Obviously hard to get the miners right off the bat, but if I can get a good core that believe in this thing I really think it will take off.

Forgot to mention in my post that for the month of February all Donations collected will go to the BitGive Foundation.  See the link below for more information...

0.5% Mandatory Donation fee to a Good Cause

Who Are We?
CharityMiningPools was created to allow miners the ability to mine coins while still knowing that their hashing power is going towards something good.  Our goal is to provide a positive and reliable service while delivering a small portion of the proceeds to a deserving recipient.  Plans are in the works to allow individual miners to choose where they would like to donate to based on a pool of available recipients.

How Does This Work?
All coins minded at CharityMiningPools will require a mandatory 0.5% Donation fee.  This donation fee will be collected and donated to the designated charitable recipient for that given month.  Though we only require a minimum 0.5% Donation fee, we welcome and encourage our miners to raise the stakes and donate more to a good cause.

What Are the Pool Fees?
We do charge a small 0.5% pool fee for each miner to help cover the cost of operating. Running a pool is unfortunately not a cheap expense and in order to deliver a secure and safe environment several components need to be put in place.  Sure someone could bring up a pool on a single server, but no redundancy or load balancing would be present. Currently CharityMiningPools is configured and running in a 8 server farm.  We hope this will provide a stable experience for all miners.

How Do I Know My Account Is Safe?
Though it's impossible to 100% guarantee against attacks, we can provide assurance that our infrastructure is built with complete redundancy, failover, and load balancing in mind.  Frequent backups of our databases ensure we will have a good copy on hand at all times in the event that our data is compromised.  Server images are taken frequently as well to provide a quick disaster recovery solution.  We also have several tiers of security in place to help prevent against DDOS and unauthorized access.

Email confirmations are required for all accounts to make any changes to your account including wallet addresses, email, pin, etc.  If you have been in the mining world for any period of time, you will know that this is a must as there have been several sites that had unauthorized changes to their miners accounts.

Automatic Payouts should be configured and used for all miners.  I cannot stress enough how important this is.  We at CharityMiningPools cannot and will not be held responsible for any lost or misdirected coins.  We provide means for all of our miners to automatically transfer their mined coins to a safe and offline wallet and this should be used.

Do you Offer any Rewards?
Yes, we currently have the following promotions and rewards in place.  More will be added over time.
1. The first 50 miners that sign up and mine from a specific coin pool for a minimum of 24 hours will receive a lifetime 0% Pool Fees pass for that pool.
2. Block Rewards plans to be implemented in the future.

Will there be more Coin options in the future?
Absolutely!  More coins are to come.  We plan in the future to allow our existing miners to vote on what they would like added.
