Recently in mid-January 2021, a small business in New Jersey, U.S. has made global news in regards to operating during the pandemic. As you dig deeper you can find that a new option has emerged in Bitcoin Cash Supporting Causes.
The Atilis Gym
When looking through numerous news sources you can find information about the Atilis Gym in New Jersey. The main point of the issue at hand is a small business continued to operate during a state wide ordered shutdown.
The point here is not whether you agree or disagree with the decision to operate, rather what has happened afterward.
The small business was fined by the state authority somewhere in the neighborhood of $15,000 per day. While the objection and court proceedings were underway, the state froze / seized / or basically made unavailable the entirety of the business's bank account.
As with all situations, issues, crisis and problems, there is an opportunity ripe for developing a solution. Roger Ver and the team at BitcoinCash have responded in kind.

It seemed to be just a matter of time for many of the cryptos to enter the space providing a service like Causes.Cash. As BitcoinCash is coming out the other side of the November 2020 fork, there's not much that will stay in the way of moving ahead and making incredible value add to all sorts of different services.
Much like a recent quote by Roger Ver;
