1. Binance Charity’s commitment to the citizens of Malta

In 2018, we worked with the Malta Community Chest Fund (MCCF) to raise crypto funds for patients suffering some terminal cancer. Since then, there have been issues we have been, unfortunately, trying to resolve in an amicable manner with MCCF. Binance Charity has every intention to fulfill its charitable obligations and we want to assure that this fund will always be dedicated to the citizens of Malta. In fact, the 30,664 BNB donated in 2018, has appreciated in value, from $200,000 USD in 2018 to ~$9 million USD as of July 2021, and will help even more people in need. As part of our ongoing effort to improve the lives of people around the world, Binance Charity is 100% committed to full transparency and ensuring all donations are distributed to those who are in need.
