Hey there. Thank you for starting to read this thread!

I am Noah Stride, 13, and a British scout! Scouting is a youth organization that teaches new skills and lets the computer generation have a real adventure! The jamboree is a meeting of 30,000 scouts from all around the world. I have been selected for the 2015 jamboree in Japan. Unfortunately the scouting movement cannot even consider subsidizing this many people so its up to ourselves to raise the money! The total sum each person from the UK needs to raise is 3300 GBP. We are doing okay so far but have used most of our resources. I now turn to you, the Bitcoin community! My second family. I know people don't have money on them after Christmas but im hoping people have a few bitcents to spare. As for my trustworthiness. I am trying to find a proper way of proving this, everything I have found so far looks a bit dodgy. I will be talking to my scout leader to try and verify myself.

I have some badges I am allowed to give to donators of certain levels. I will get pictures uploaded this week coming. Unfortunately, shipping is really quite expensive to far off lands. So if you want one, contact me and we can establish the shipping costs and work out a minimum donation. If you include your email address I am working on a thank you email and everyone will receive an after-journey message. If you order a badge then you get a letter with the badge, hand signed. These badges are likely to gain value as they are from the Brownsea Contingent. Any scout will know that Brownsea island is the place where scouting was founded. A contingent is one of the groups of young people going.

The base cost of one badge is going to be 0.007593 BTC. This allows for slight fluctuations in price and for the costly wiring back to an english bank account through Bitstamp.

For the moment I can only accept donations for nothing until I sort out the shipping system for the badges. So please don't send bit cents yet and expect the badge! If you just want to donate for the happiness, send the coins to address below and message me with the transaction ID and your email so I can thank you.
