Topic: Ambulance - Campaign - Ukraine - page 3. (Read 2950 times)

I have donated some money to support your campaign. Just realized that recently I wasn't doing enough to support Ukraine. It's already 811th day of war and longer it continues, it's getting harder and harder to get support

Yeah, these things is happening, done both by governments and private initatives. For example, last week truck for firefighters from my city was sent to Ukraine
Regarding to transportation, almost all charities that I know drive cars to Ukraine themselves. If trucks or trains would be better option, probably they would use it, but they're not doing it. If they delivering humanitarian aid or something for troops, they're driving to final destination to be sure that everything will reach people who needs it (We all know level of corruption in Ukraine even in times of war).

You may have made a slight mistake in counting people because there are already 27 people here who have donated according to their means to help Ukrainians. The member who created this list then three other members have donated here which are not mentioned in this list. I've noticed a few members have translated this post to their own local boards which is why many people are or are aware of this donation related post.
Everyone comes here willingly to donate and whoever wants to donate will donate here. Maybe no one is donating here for a few days, hopefully soon people will come here again and extend their hand of donation to Ukrainians.

Around 25 members have donated to this campaign which is really appreciable as people donating like this in this kind of campaign is really beyond our expectations. Everyone tried their best to donate and they donated. We are not belittling anyone's donation because everyone has donated here to benefit people. There are still many users who can donate to this campaign so I think OP should be patient for some more time so that everyone who wants to donate can donate to this campaign.

I have given you the deposit addresses on behalf of the OP. You can also read the OP for confirmation of the addresses. God loves a cheerful giver. I will see what I can do from my own end. I appreciate your effort @derBowler for sacrificing your time to see how funds can be raised for the ambulance. God bless you and your family including all the donors.

It may be a good decision for you. Make your donation here as soon as you can and associate yourself with this ambulance campaign.
Yes you are right that small donations often add up to big ones. So those who are donating in small form here should never feel small because sometimes even small amount can help people. Willingness to donate required Those who have the will to donate can donate any amount they want. Also if you can't donate Bitcoin or Ethereum due to high fees then you can donate Monero(XMR) tokens. Because these tokens require very low fees to withdraw.
@derBowler had previously provided a Monero(XMR) address which was incorrect but May 11 he has again provided a new Monero(XMR) address which is correct if you wish to send your donation to that address.

Hopefully we will be on the list you provided very soon and I will try to donate to the ambulance campaign as much as I can. Giving is a noble virtue and small donations often go a long way in helping big causes. I will donate today by converting my native local currency to bitcoin or ethereum as I don't have any bitcoin or ethereum at the moment.

@derBowler, Thanks for the detailed answer

Honestly, I didn't even think that such a vehicle with all the equipment could be cheap, but what is cheap nowadays, right? However, considering the size of the European Union, it seems to me that there is probably a certain amount of ambulances that could perhaps even be donated (which is probably happening).

Regarding the transport of vehicles, have you perhaps thought about sending them in another way, perhaps by transport train or transport trucks? Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that it would be cheaper.

Hello,

No, it's not a secret - on the contrary, it shows that we are working on it.

Almost 300,000 euros were collected in the first ambulance project, which enabled six vehicles to be bought, refurbished and various medicines and medical equipment to be purchased.

Report on the first project with the collaboration:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_rlrt0rnVQ

Of course, there are also transportation costs, fuel (diesel) for approx. 2700 km per vehicle and catering for all the volunteers and drivers.
Such an ambulance has a fuel consumption of approx. 10 to 12 liters per 100 km and weighs approx. 5.5 tons when fully equipped; they are not built for long distances but for quick trips in the city.

Since we as an aid organization have to replace the vehicles again and again and we can then sell them ourselves, we don't have a dealer in between and so an expert opinion is then drawn up on the vehicle and then we buy it from the respective organizations, of course at a low value since everyone wants to help us.

But nevertheless, depending on the equipment (ambulance, emergency aid, intensive care equipment or obstetrics), such a vehicle still costs us several 10k euros or, to put it another way, for just under one Bitcoin at the current exchange rate you can get a complete ambulance fully equipped with various medicines and life-sustaining equipment including transport to the destination plus various additional medical supplies, as we do not travel to Ukraine with the vehicles empty.

Yes, it is a lot of money, but what does freedom cost, a healthy life without fear and suffering?

I hope I was able to bring you a little transparency here again to show this and we can continue to count on any support.

Greetings Tim

It's really interesting how much funding you have shown here, even though a lot of money is still needed to purchase an ambulance. You continue this for a long time surely success will come, I think this project will be successful, and you will stand by the side of innocent victims. Although, many people are now involved in your project and are sending donations to make it a success. And if this project is successful, it will surely help the innocent and needy people in Ukraine and you are helping them a lot, it is a very good thing.
If people are more encouraged as they are sending donations here at present and request people from their country to donate, then surely this ambulance project can be made a success easily. We know small amounts add up to a huge fraction, so our small donations add up to huge amounts, and we believe this project will be a success.

@derBowler He is doing really great work and many people are already donating here in various ways to support his most generous work.This post has been taken very seriously by various local boards and translated into their local boards.I also posted there to let people on my local board know about this post so they can focus there and donate to the people of Ukraine.

This is my local board post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bantu-rakyat-ukraina-5496167

I paid some money to involve myself in the ambulance campaign. I told my office colleagues about this I have discussed with them they said they will be ready to pay that amount in next few days. When they give me the money I will pay them here.

Hello everyone

I also want to stand needy people of Ukraine but unfortunately I do not have much funds to donate this campaign to make this campaign successful and I am really sad about it  . I cannot become an ambulance campaign donor myself but maybe someone Spanish users came here to donate some funds to this campaign through my translation • Asunto: Ambulancia - Campaña - Ucrania. @derbowler, you are doing such a great job and all other members are also doing great work by donate some funds.

Congratulations users who donate funds:

Hey @derBowler sorry I am getting this information now because a fellow local poster @Chilwell translated this topic to our localboard and I had to track down to see the source of the content and I noticed it wasn't a cooked story nor faked, actually it's touching to see people at this critical condition without providing them more facilities to help save their lives.
I don't know how it would look like, although I was unable to read through out the topic to see what others has already put down, so I will say if there is any address provided for usdt-bsc or usdt-trc20 I don't mind showing my own side of love with little I know I can give irrespective that I have my own personal responsibility but I think my love can go along way even though I can't give upto what you guys expected, but with a woman heart I am being touched to give. Please I would want you to quote the address for me if there is any then within 48hr I can make payment to it and share prove of payment here with you, and hope it won't be late by then?

Thank you as I wait for your response.

Long ago I wanted to donate to this humanitarian campaign but due to various family needs I was not able to donate until now but today I donated 0.00025 btc. Probably 0.000130 btc will be received in wallet excluding gas fee. I am happy to donate here even though the donation amount is small. If the ambulance campaign is successful, my donation will be worthwhile when I will hear that the ambulance has been donated to help people in Ukraine and when a patient will be helped in that ambulance. I appreciate the work of all those who have taken this responsibility and those who have donated here, thank you.

You are really running a nice donation campaing of derBowler to help Ukraine.
It's so sad to see what Ukrainians are suffering and your campaign will bring back more hope for all Ukrainian.

KUDOS to derBowler.

Didn't expect that I would get those merits, you guys never should've made a fuzz about it and gave those merits to the people that's deserving of getting them merits. I'm happy that my donation was able to make a bit of difference to the hell scape that a lot of Ukrainian's are currently facing, to the Ukrainian forum people out there, this war isn't bound to last long and that there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Are there like a thread about this donation drive that's only giving out updates on the things that are currently happening, probably really cool if get an updates on what's happening to the donation, pretty useful to prove your innocence when there's people out there that doesn't believe in what this person has done to the get to the point that you don't care about but it's thrown to you.

I have donated some money to the ambulance project as per my ability, honestly it feels really good to participate in such a noble cause. I am praying from my heart that, your ambulance project will be successful and will end the suffering of many helpless people. And we should stand by every affected and needing people, because today they are in danger, we stand by them. Tomorrow if unfortunately we are in any danger then tomorrow they will also come forward to help us as much as possible. This is how we should stand by each other and it is above our duty.

Anyway, I am really happy to participate in this project.


Specially I sincerely thank @derBowler brother, because at first I could not send the money to the address I wanted to donate to. For this @derBowler brother sent me another address, I was able to send money to that address.



My transaction id;

First of all, many thanks for all of your donations, such a nice gesture is very welcome from all of you.

But please note, somehow I'm getting dragged in the discussion frequently but I'm not part of @derBowlers ambulance campaign. I'm not part of derBowlers aid team, I don't have access to funds and I'm just a regular donator, like all of you.
Just to avoid any possible misunderstanding.  

@derBowler, if it's not a secret, how much does a fully equipped ambulance actually cost? I'm asking purely out of curiosity, of course

Hello friends

As some of you have already noticed, the error devil has crept into the Monero address and therefore some get an error message when sending.

We also had to check this first and realized that there is a space between the 4 and the A, which we have corrected.

Here is the correct valid address for Monero:

4958PhVdtQGTpgdpC2VUhv94MvnCSrA4E77aVmViwfdzbTrU5VGfYRtPTNSjcwtJgNhGzyVw9AqTMG4 A5Upv623cEPesXaU

Some people have asked what has been collected so far, so here's an update.

Bitcoin : 0.01152651
Ethereum : 0.0205
Monero : 0.37529

Here is a big, big thank you to @ All, please keep it up so that we can help the needy people again this time.

Greetings Tim

I just saw this thread today, and I love the great work that derBowler and @1miau is doing. It is good to help the people in need especially in times like this when they need our help. We are humans and there is nothing left in the world than showing care to one another. I made a little donation from the bottom of my heart, and from time to time, I will see how I can always assist. Keep up the good work guys.
