Not nearly enough

I'm kinda holding back on donating bitcoins seeing as there are many scams out there

It's kinda hard for me to figure out which ones are legit

Well I have donated with BTC yet but I have donated money.

If I donated BTC to a charity I need to trust it.

It's not very much, but I have donated some bits to ThePirateBay in the past. When I am about to empty a wallet when it has around 10K-100K satoshi's in it, I will send it to their Bitcoin donation address, and then never use that address again.

I never donated anything. For 2 reasons mainly:

1. I have seen many fake donation scams where money was stolen. Now I am allergic to every donation attempt.
2. With the peanuts I am earning it is hard to donate really. Unless we are talking about $1 donations.

I haven't donated any Bitcoin to anyone. When it comes to charities, I am quite sceptical. How do I know the money that I send goes to the people that need it the most? Also, I don't really think that charities that are actually good, accept Bitcoin as a donation.
Well you can always look at their field reports like videos, pictures.ect Roll Eyes
That way we know that our money goes to the right hand Wink
I personally never donated to shady charity site without any proof that the money goes to the one who needs it Wink

I have made charitable contributions in my life, but no bitcoin donations so far.
If bitcoins really take off, I might convert a portion of it to fiat and donate to local charities.

How many Bitcoin have you donated to charity or organization? I only donated... (a shame Embarrassed) 5000 Satoshi the other day using a faucet. I was lucky enough to hit the jackpot and got myself 7500 Satoshi. I saw there was a donate (to charity) button and so I decided to donate 5000 Satoshi. I know 5000 Satoshi might be worthless but... At least I help someone by.. a bit.

What about you? How much Bitcoin have you donated out? Please dont answer like .. "I send 1 BTC to a unknown address and never get back. I'll take it as a donation" or "I lost 2 BTC to PrimeDice. I'll take it as a donation.".

Edit: Check out the awesome list of charities which accept Bitcoin as donation. http://bitcoin100.org/charities/.

First important thing which must be noted in this case (in general) is that, someone, must have in order to donate. So if someone don't have or have very few, and for more earned with to much difficulty, even if he/she may have the desire to donate cannot do this. Following this reasoning I have few bitcoins, mostly bought with money earned with to much difficulty and sweat. Money removed from my little familiar budget which mean impossibility to do other necessary things for my family and myself. Now I am asking to you: Have meaning to donate something from those bitcoins? Even if you would answer yes I cannot satisfy your desire. I haven't donated never bitcoin and probably (if I will continue to be in the same situation) I will not donate bitcoins never. Even because I believe that bitcoin will have big value one day and is a wastage to spread those in this way. Maybe I can donate my local money to someone in need or in difficulty (and I made this sometimes) but this is not connected with the aim of this thread. So have not relevance.

So far nothing. Not sure if I really would as there isn't any way for me to know they are actually spending it on things we donate for. That's why local charities are much better to donate to since you can see where your money gets used for.

Yes I too have not donated any bitcoins to any organization. But with the fiats I have donated to many orphanage houses and for some child educations. The reason is obvious, I do not want to spend bitcoin in anyways. That is the reason I am still in zero for the bitcoin donation.
