Cochahuasi Animal Sanctuary

Here is their Wallet of Satoshi QR code (see below), maybe we can send zaps with a message saying to join nostr lol. Just an idea.

Seems legit and cool:

from their website:

'Help the Cochahuasi Animal Sanctuary: Fast and Secure Donations with Wallet of Satoshi

At the Cochahuasi Animal Sanctuary, our mission is to protect and preserve Peru’s wildlife. From majestic Andean condors to gentle spectacled bears, our sanctuary is a safe haven for endangered species. However, this work would not be possible without the generous support of people like you.

Why Should You Help?

Every donation we receive goes directly to feeding, medical care, and rehabilitation of the animals. Your contribution allows us to offer them a second chance and ensure their well-being in a natural environment. Additionally, supporting the Cochahuasi Animal Sanctuary is a way to actively participate in biodiversity conservation and protect our natural heritage.'

Hilarious. Have you seen my bat signals for Will and Kieran?

I have not lol πŸ‘€πŸ‘€

I will email this Peru animal shelter tonight maybe, unless you plan to tho. I will do my best, but I don't have the sales patter down lol. I assume they will be up for it considering they've already got a wallet of Satoshi, bizarre that they're not posting here

The Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region accepts crypto currency. Not Bitcoin only. Its a start.

Almost all the ones I listed accept everything, which makes sense. I suppose a lot of it is converting to fiat to spend, perhaps?

The only exception i can see is the one in Peru which even has a lightning address
