Thanks for your answers so far. I realize, that my question was maybe a bit naive. I am Bitcoin user myself since 5 years and do consider myself generous. Granted, I know my friend and her situation and you can't know her.

Anyway, thanks for the constructive answers. And for those who smell scam, I did NOT post any address and asked for donations here.

I understand your part though, those other members does say its likely a scam because there are lots of thread the same as yours who tried to ask for something or donation but as i saw you didnt put any address and just askin for a private fund raising, you could use google you would still able to find some because if you try to ask in this forum for sure you would not get any penny from here.

Hi board,

I am new here as a registered user but reading the board and holding some BTC since more than 5 years now. Today, I need some urgent help.

A friend of ours is a student from abroad, currently starting her final year of studies in Germany. Her family stopped supporting her because she refused an arranged marriage. Now she is figthing to finishing her studies and becoming self-sufficient. However, running out of funds, her visa is on risk for the final year.

As she doesn't want to reveal her situation to too many of our friends, I thought about starting a BTC fundraising campaign. We have collected about half the funding she needs already, but still need some 4000 €, or 7.5 BTC.

Can anyone point me to a good place for starting a private fundraising or would that possibly be accepted here on this board? We are running out of time, so I appreciate a quick answer.

Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure that everything you say is true if we wanted to donate the funds will certainly choose the correct foundation will donate money donations with properly.

There is some platforms which can help you to receive donations from people, like gofundme and other sites, just google it and you will find a lot of them. But that's supporting fiat and not Bitcoin.
However asking for this matter with your recently created account, and without any personal details, make the impression that you try to scam people.

do you really need to go through a centralized service like gofundme? they don't offer any more guarantees to donators than a direct donation other than some type of limit and a little drama.

you could set up a webpage, link to it on facebook and introduce an escrow service if you think that'll encourage people. the real players in crowd funding don't seem to want anything to do with bitcoin. I wouldn't trust the no marks who are offering it.

more importantly, why the hell would you want bitcoin donations? there's billions of fiat users versus a fraction of bitcoin users. and all of them are super paranoid and not exactly generous.

@Velkro @Aamir

Don't you see that I am NOT asking to donate anything here on this board. Why does everyone here seem to get my question wrong? Maybe its a language issue, I am not a native English speaker.

My question is merely if anyone can point me to a fundraising website that allows to collect Bitcoins rather than wire transferred Euro. My intention here was just to briefly summarize the situation, hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

This is not a scam and I am not begging for bitcoins here on this board.

Sorry dude, such attempts are so often on this board but no one succeeds with such sweet stories of a friend studying abroad etc,, no one here earns there bitcoins to give them away to someone they don't get to know anything about.

Hi,

thanks for the quick answer, I appreciate this.

Yes, I am fully aware that my questions may sound like scam. She is embarassed about her situation and thus wants to stay anonymous. University is the Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf, I have also studied at this university.

I thought that begging was not allowed and thus did not include an address for donations in my request.

So despite your impression, that this might be scam, can you or anyone else please try to answer my question. Is there a good place to start a BTC fundraising campaign? I have only found placed for collecting money via bank transfer and was hoping that BTC might be easier.

Thanks,
Chris
