I LOVE THE LIR PROJECT
What a shitty situation this poor lady found herself in. Those hackers went a step to far making an old lady who runs a nonprofit dog rescue jump through hoops to buy bitcoin and send it to them.
I hate hackers!  Angry
I'll send in 1 btc, and hopefully others will do the same.
Lets go fellow bitcoin brothers and sisters. let's raise this money.

Hi everyone, its been a long time since I've been active here, but felt that this warranted a return to the forums...  

Recently a local dog rescue charity got hit by ransomware.  Their story has made National headlines on CBC as well as onto CBC Radio One "The Current".

You can read more about what we are doing to help them here:

But the short of it is, we're trying to raise a total of 5.0 BTC for them from the bitcoin community, to show them that not all bitcoiners are bad people.  

We have donated an initial 1.0 BTC to get the ball rolling.

The donation address is: https://blockchain.info/address/1HD921z1ojj6cU4wNubJo5mKUSgvCEPPdx and we will utilize our brokerage to convert to CAD at spot rate and 0 fees, and bring them a cheque on June 24th.

Please help us in supporting the dogs that suffered!

Thanks!

James
