According to the report from a local news source, the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital Foundation located in Alberta, Canada, has recently green-lighted acceptance of donations in Shiba Inu (SHIB) and other kinds of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), among others.
The Healthcare Foundation’s acceptance of crypto for donations was made possible due to its partnership with the philanthropic startup, The Giving Block.
