I agree with the previous membe here not to show there faces its a sensitive area people have pride and one should respect. I must say you are a very good humanitarian with the limited resources you are doing a fine job. This is something I am very passionate about, hence I won't get too personal about.
Once this is a genuine cause those who can help do what you can. However generally I dont believe in hand-outs to help people for the day. Help people to help them self and in the process that they can also help others in similar situations. To be frank God didn't put us here to be suffering it is man that did that and It's a shame cause they can fix it and refuse to do so....going of track. For the people on need It's a blessing for them which equals a blessing for you.🙏

The only problem with your images is you are using the faces on your image and this can be disrespectful for them, Imagine even if they grow up after years they still some pictures of themselves on the internet where they need some other people to feed them, so I hope you take permissions before taking these pictures.
We asked for their permission and they were happy to take a picture with us. The people we are helping are the children and elderly. So far we have only $100 which will be used to buy more food items today and distributed in the next location. Thank you had really doubts on making deposits or donations because lots had making this as an excuse just to scam out peoples money but if this one is true then
i might make out some deposits but i do still need more proofs that would convince me in doing so just like the others.
It’s really nice that there is someone who is doing this , caring about the poor and the needy. That’s quite nice and if everyone will have the mindset of helping the poor people around them, it’s going to be a starting to changing the world for good. Sadly a lot of people never cares about that and all that they are after is just their own, and would rather take from the poor and add to the already big share that they have gathered up for themselves.
I have been doing something like this, but it is not with Bitcoin. Mine is that I go to the hospital and show the little support that I can to those who are sick and also pray with them. I have once thought of using crypto, but I felt that for the part I’m into, it is quite not necessary, because they are sick people and need to have quick access to the money I’m giving to them. Maybe I would try something else. By the way, Good luck man, and merry Christmas.

That's really commendable on your part and true representation of what Christmas is actually and see the happy faces of those you have shared gifts with.This is year of giving away happiness and giving some gifts and meals to the needy one's is what we all should appreciate and try on our part to do in our locality aslo.There are lot of those who can't afford to buy even one meal for their family and instead of giving expensive gifts and doing parties with friends we can help them a little also which will make them happy this Christmas and be their Santa.
Once again Merry Christmas to all although I am little bit late but this whole weekend has the same vibe.So enjoy it.

Very nice and Merry Christmas everyone, I'm always a gib fan of helping homeless people, especially whenever you are talking about helping them with bitcoin and crypto because you can have two targets to help and feed the homeless people and spread the word of bitcoin to have economic freedom in all over the world so I totally support the idea, The only problem with your images is you are using the faces on your image and this can be disrespectful for them, Imagine even if they grow up after years they still some pictures of themselves on the internet where they need some other people to feed them, so I hope you take permissions before taking these pictures.
This project is very good, but I always worry that things like this is scams. I have seen some terrible "behind the scene" footage of illiterate people holding up posters for something that they do not benefit from and then scammers taking the proceeds of these scams. (Important Note : I am NOT saying this is one of those scams)
I hope this is not one of them and that the proceeds of this goes to the correct cause. (You are 100% correct... Christmas has been over commercialized)
We would really be having that kind of doubts on which i cant really blame out people on now to hesitate on making out some donation when it comes to these kind of causes.Well, there are people who doI hope this is not one of them and that the proceeds of this goes to the correct cause. (You are 100% correct... Christmas has been over commercialized)
this from the bottom of their heart or something real and the truth but since scams are really rampant then you would really be always have second thoughts.
Just like on what you said that if this is actually true then good job to OP, giving out and helping those people who are in need at least even on most
simplest way would always a big thing for them.
of initiatives made out by other people.

That's wonderful! Giving back to the community. That's the essence of Christmas anyways. But obviously, only a few know and actually imbibe this culture of sharing. Thanks for reaching out to the down and trodden.
~I want to post the pictures in the OP but I don't want to cramp the thread. Can someone please tell me how to post pictures in rows and columns to manage space. Thanks
I believe you want to reorganize the thread like this right? You can use a table, or just see that thread for the example of the code.Code:
[table]

Anyway, I don't have anything to say but I truly hope may all the good things you did, come back into you. Merry Christmas all
We are back from today's outing. I want to post the pictures in the OP but I don't want to cramp the thread. Can someone please tell me how to post pictures in rows and columns to manage space. Thanks
You have a good heart to help and you remember that you once lived in a situation that you needed help. Nice support bro.
You already have some pictures is smaller sizes, so adjust the bigger pictures using the format you used for the smaller ones.
Then placing them in row is just by assembling them and spacing them as if you are making space between words.
I like the part where the driving is already a hodler of some altcoins.
However, whether you include the URL of this honourable forum or not, this forum is already popular , at least the driver may have known this site already.
You have done well to many, good job.

A good example of celebrating Hari Raya by sharing so that the needy and those who deserve it can enjoy and feel this best moment, where many people are just busy preparing for the holiday for their sake without seeing those who can't celebrate it due to circumstances.
and OP celebrate a real Christmas and all your kindness, ideas and plans will be an example to others and bring the good name of crypto.

I can only say that you are Santa Claus in the real world. There is no need to give in large quantities, the most important thing is that there is moral education contained in it. Because it can make them have hope to keep the spirit in running life. Remember that what you sow is what you will reap. Share even if it's just a sip of water and a piece of bread, one good deed will be rewarded with 10 goodness. If you share 10 slices of bread then you have 100 goodness waiting for you in front of your eyes.

Greetings to Nigeria from Borneo.
Thank you for your support. Life after covid is very expensive in Nigeria. Buying a pack of indomie noodles and protein is not what everybody can afford. I can tell you families have nothing to eat this Christmas. Just yesterday, a man committed suicide yesterday leaving his two kids and wife. According to the story, he had lost his job in 2019 and has been struggling since. Cases like this are common and we can help spread hope through this campaign. I have volunteers cooking nourishing meals to give out. Part of the items we bought are yam, indomie noodles, spaghetti noodles, bread, drinks, soap, milk, chocolate, pack of rice. It is similar everywhere in the global South, I would say, though perhaps the disparity has always been greater where you are. I'm fortunate enough to have found better economic circumstance but yeah, indomie and almost any sort of fortified wheat/rice is almost a luxury for many of my compatriots. Inflation is always officially manageable, but the people on the ground suffer the most, especially in urban areas. I know more and more in the past 2 years thanks to Covid-exacerbated effects all moving back to the village to farm, where at least you can live off the land.
I know it's nothing to fix long-term problems but if it can bring some festive cheer with good hot meals... it's Bitcoin put to good use.
What a noble thing, that way you not only feel the benefits of crypto but you can also share it with others. people who help other people of course it will be easy for him to get good or profit. kindness can be started from oneself to do good to others and we also hope that more and more people are moved to help others. it can be an example for me and my friends here so that the benefits that we get from the crypto world are more meaningful. it's a nice thing if we can help others with our own efforts.
That's really nice of you to donate food and clothes to the needy people. It's always a blessing to see crypto being used to help the needy.
I wish you all the good luck to keep up the good work and I wish that this campaigns keeps extending as long as possible.
There's one thing though which is bothering me. The url on the pamplet is bitcointalkforum.org which is a separate site.
It's not the actual bitcointalk forum we are using here. Can anyone shine some light on this ?

Merry Christmas to you OP, good job, you showed to them the essence of Christmas, and not only that, but you also showed your support in crypto. I wish I would be able to do this kind of charitable works, it's been my dream to have a foundation to help the poor especially the homeless, and your post is very inspiring, so thank you.
That's a very nice project. Christmas is such a special time in the year where we are with family, eat very good food and have a lot of presents for each other. It becomes easy to forget about the less fortunate people around us. Every project that helps the homeless should get a lot of attention. In my city we have an a special event before Christmas in the supermarket where you can donate from 5 euro upwards for the Christmas food of poorer people. They make boxes ready and deliver them directly, or have people let them pick up at the store. Food is the most important thing in life and nobody should have to hunger during Christmas. Combing that with crypto currencies is even better. I hope it will be a big success.
