Charitable donations should be made as transparent and easy as possible. Learn more about our efforts to make this happen to help earthquake victims in Türkiye and Syria.
With Binance Charity, crypto donations have made a difference in this situation in Türkiye and Syria. We've made donating to the Earthquake Relief: Rebuilding & Recovery project even easier — you can do it with just a few taps in the Binance app. This way, we can guarantee that all donated crypto funds reach their intended recipients as quickly as possible.
What is meant by Earthquake Emergency Assistance?
Binance recently launched the Earthquake Emergency Relief: Rebuilding & Recovery Initiative to raise critical humanitarian funds for Turkey and Syria. The funds raised will be donated to government-approved non-profit organizations, Kizilay (Turkish Red Crescent) in Turkey and humanitarian NGO Mercy Corps in Syria. So far, the crowdfunding request — which accepts BTC, ETH, BNB, BUSD, and XRP — has raised more than $200,000 in crypto donations.
How Can Binance Pay Help in the Donation Process?
Crypto donations are transparent because they are recorded in a public ledger supported by blockchain technology. This feature is very important in philanthropy because it allows us to ensure all funds go to the right recipient or organization. This feature also helps build trust and accountability across the board.
Previously, to make a crypto donation through Binance, users had to send funds directly to Binance Charity's cold wallet — this was neither the quickest nor the most convenient method.
To simplify the process, Binance Pay allows you to make crypto donations directly without manual transactions. The system is still transparent and all donations are recorded on-chain to ensure maximum accountability.
