The team at CasperLabs is proud to support Binance Charity Foundation’s Crypto Against COVID campaign. Now more than ever, we can all appreciate how small the world truly is and the importance of coming together as a global community. As the entire world undergoes a challenging time, we are humbled and honored to be a part of the global community’s response.

The #CryptoAgainstCovid Alliance is a consortium of people, projects and companies that have come together to donate funds that will be spent on medical equipments supplies that will be distributed throughout the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Spain, South Korea, Iran and Turkey. Leading this mission, Binance Charity will also match all donations 2:1 with 100% of the proceeds going to medical centers in need of dire assistance.

As of March 20, 2020, Binance Charity has delivered 366,000 pairs of gloves, 56,800 masks, 9 sterilizers, 173 barrels of disinfectant (around 5 tons), 5,280 bottles of hand sanitizers, 20,000 testing kits, 7,850 protective suits, 20,000 pairs of goggles, 388 oxygen concentrators, and 1000 germicidal lamps to over 300 hospitals and medical teams in multiple provinces/cities.

It is an honor for CasperLabs to join the Binance Charity Foundation’s Crypto Against COVID campaign, contributing to a growing effort on the part of our industry to acquire qualified medical supplies and deliver them to as many hospitals in infected areas as possible.

By now, COVID has affected all us in various ways, and many of us have friends and loved ones who are battling the virus. It is important that we all do everything we can to keep ourselves and each other healthy and safe.

For CasperLabs, this means looking out for our core staff and the larger Casper community — as well as contributing to impactful efforts such as #CryptoAgainstCOVID. We thank Binance for inviting us to join the campaign and are grateful for BCF’s 2x match of our donation.
