drewph is buying the coins. The result will be good for 10 bags or 300 meals! I'm also meeting Wendell and Mark Vernon later, so I should have pics.

Wendell from our team will be traveling to the Philippines next week, and will try to meet Dabs and check out what he's doing. If it happens, we'll report back about it here.

Wow. THIS is what Bitcoin needs. Bitcoin needs this and anything that pops up around it.
I will definitely be sharing this thread regularly, and donating when I can.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
I have a suspicion who donated the latest 0.10037 BTC, but of course, I can't confirm it. Thanks!

I looked at the tx to see why you have such a suspicion and saw why. If you suspect me, sorry it wasn't it. Now, I too have to thank them for Bitcoin 100's donation, as well as for the one to Sean's Outpost on their behalf.

Be a Force for Good and give aid to the victims of the Bohol-Cebu Earthquake

At Nu Skin, we are gravely concerned for all those affected by the devastating calamity that occurred in Bohol and Cebu last October 15. A magnitude 7.2 earthquake hit the two provinces and neighboring areas, and the destructive tremor has claimed at least 185 lives and has affected more than three million people in eight cities and 52 towns. Our very own local VitaMeal partner, Feed the Children Philippines, and the people who comprise it, were not spared from this disaster as FTCP holds its main office in Cebu. With residents still missing, hundreds of thousands of people seeking food and shelter, and homes, roads, and centuries-old infrastructure severely damaged, the people of Central Visayas need all the aid they can get as they try to recover from this tragic blow.

It is in this light that we call upon our Nu Skin family of distributors and employees, who have consistently shown commitment to our mission of being a Force For Good especially to those most in need. As an initial donation, the Nu Skin Philippines corporate office donated Php 100,000 in cash to Feed the Children Philippines, who despite being affected by the earthquake, continue with their operations to prepare and distribute meals containing VitaMeal to alleviate hunger in the area. The people of Bohol and Cebu are still in urgent need of your help, and we sincerely hope you can join us in our efforts to give aid to the victims of our country’s most recent calamity. Any amount is most welcome and can be sent to 1food14NCLas1FssyKnf2MgGZcwUFRKXE

We, at Nu Skin Enterprises Philippines, are genuinely grateful for all the kind hearts that make up this company, and who express compassion and prayers for all those affected by this misfortune. We thank you for all your help, and for steadfastly living by our mission to be a Force For Good.

Message has been edited by Dabs to insert the bitcoin donation address. (You could of course, send your fiat donations to the head office.)

That's a noble work!

Efforts appreciated.

Congratulations Dabs!

Thanks.

This is a good idea if legit.  I like it.

Of course it's legit. Smiley Everyone can see in the blockchain where the coins are going; to someone who buys the bitcoins for a good charitable rate, which I then use to buy the bags.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
Due to recent catastrophic events (if you watch or read the news, you'll know about the earthquake and storms), your generosity is more appreciated now than ever. Almost 100% of your donations goes to buying bags of food. (0.00001% or something small / whatever was leftover goes to some kid selling sampaguita flowers on the street.)

Only because I like and trust you: https://blockchain.info/tx/e51a4303288c1d2d2b705ecfaa5b493e626c6f051f08efba8818242ecc2780d5

On a not-so-related topic, I'm going to buy me some hair clippers for personal use. Then I thought, hey, we used to have give free hair cuts on those same humanitarian missions I used to attend more often. So, maybe I'll do that too, even though I'm not a professional barber. Free hair cuts... cuz if I charge them, I won't have repeat customers.

Anyway, donate donate! I hope I can keep it at least at this pace continuously. One child at a time.

Vitameal bought Oct 12 2013


That is for 4 bags or 120 meals. Donation means they will take care of sending the bags to the charities that will do the actual feeding programs.

I feel that time is of the essence, so I will go ahead and do the original plan, rather than wait for November. Get the receipt, scan or take a picture of that. Wait for the love letter and also scan and post it here.

@grabhive. That would be nice. The exact rate (if you like to compute for it) is 1640 PHP (Philippine Peso) to 30 child meals. So it depends on both USD to PHP, and BTC to USD rates. I just estimated it at 0.01 BTC per meal. (I went to bitcoinaverage.com and preev.com)
