Why are you a huge Anita fan?

Because I think she walks the walk. She is solidly bitcoin, does not look to personally profit from her donations, and has done good work fostering bitcoin communities in Africa. I look forward to your deep dive. Let's see what you dig up.

I'm aware; also have met at talks in the past. I'm just asking for pitches! It's important to understand why people recommend something.

Scraping the internet is easy. Even doing the DD is easy. All automated and what isn't there in my toolbox is being vibecoded as we speak. The reason why I ask is that SN happens to have quite the collection of high integrity Bitcoiners, so I'm explicitly looking at what other stackers think is worthy. Not to be lazy, but to do a high standards donation.

I'm literally planning to give away of the rewards for work I did for SN, so this is me paying forward the downstream of my most valueable posession: past time spent that I cannot get back.

She's done the work to onboard a number of people personally, and shared their stories of how they're using bitcoin to solve their problems. And that's not to mention all of the local Bitcoin meetups she's gotten off the ground and provided with educational resources (translated into the local languages before chatGPT no less.) She's on the front line and putting in the work for those that need bitcoin the most! I'm a fan too.
