I donated a small amount of money to CFAR and Archive.org when there were matching campaigns because both organisations accept bitcoin as a payment option. I liked the feeling but as a student it is quite an expensive experience though I will do it again in the future. One thing I'd like though is to be notified about is when my favorite charities have matching campaigns going on so that my contribution goes a longer way. Is there a way to get emails on those occasions without being spammed every other day about stuff I really do not care about?

You can subscribe to a monthly newsletter at intelligence.org.

It's one short email a month. While not exactly a notification for a campaign, it should always inform you in time when the matching campaign is running.

So it would take about 15 favorite charities before on average Metus gets "spammed every other day."
