Once again I was able to donate (this time: 9 euros) to the Amani-Kinderdorf organization because of another Bitcoin donation. Thank you!
Yes, he does. He earned it partly because of this thread. [1]

siesatsu is a scammer and used a video of starving children to get people to send money to his own Bitcoin address in another thread.
However, one Bitcoin showed up a few days ago and I donated the money in form of euros to the Amani organization. Thank you!

Thanks a lot siesatsu but are you sure that you sent the Bitcoins to the right address? Your donation doesn't show up yet on Blockexplorer. [1]

And once again I was able to donate 12 euros because of your Bitcoin donations. Thank you so much!
Hi guys,
Long time no see...
I just wanted to inform you that I recently sent 30 euros to Amani-Kinderdorf again.
Thank you very much for your continuous support!

Hi guys,
First of all i have to apologize because it took me so long to post this but I have been a bit occupied lately by private issues.
However, I just wanted to let you know that the Bitcoins you donated back in October, November and December have finally found their way to the Amani organization. (In the form of Euro)
Some months ago the value wasn't that high but I used today's value from MtGox (5.5 Euro / Bitcoin), which results in the incredible amount of 112 Euro for this charity.
Thanks a lot to everybody who donated. You really made the world a better place!
If you ever feel like donating again, you may want to do it now as the value of Bitcoins seems to rise pretty fast these days.

Thanks a lot, Bruno. You rock! The donation is now listed as well on BlockExplorer.
I'm totally fine at the moment and I really hope you are, too.
@all: None of your donations have reached the organization yet. Before accusing me of scamming you, let me explain:
The Amani charity started to accept Bitcoin donations at the beginning of October. Because of the highly unpredictable (at least for me) Bitcoin value the organization and me agreed that I send them the Bitcoin donations every quarter in euros (looking at the current MtGox price) and just keep the Bitcoins. That means that I will keep collecting donations till the end of December before sending the value of the collected Bitcoins in euros to Amani.
It may even give you a good feeling as I'll use the Bitcoins for paying stuff in Bitcoins and keeping the Bitcoin economy busy while I get rid of some of my fiat-money by sending it to Amani.
I hope this approach is fine for you all. If not, please just let me know. I'll also keep you up to date in this thread about any transactions.

Thanks for your donation, Phinnaeau Gage. Somehow however it didn't show up and it's even not listed on Block Explorer. Did you use the address 1NoA98grVfXfVqysU4ijM9jhMBD8vmrUC8 ?
P.S: Sorry for the late reply

Looking back, it's quite possible I didn't send it for I believe when I penned that post, I was penning another post at the same time which was in reference to your charity. My intent was to send the Bitcoin after posting that post although the post stated that I already did such. Oops! Hope I don't get banned for admitting this
Hope all is well with you, Waldschrat, and your charitable organization.

I like this charity, hence the bump. Moreover, I just donated another Bitcoin to this organization. Not much, but I'm willing to bet somebody's going to get to eat a meal because of it.

This is a 100% legit organization with a web presence spanning several years
Thanks for pointing that out. If anyone is still in doubt, you may want to write an eMail to the Amani management to confirm their work. Their contact details are listed on the website. @Phinnaeus Gage: I rid the paragraph you mentioned. I was just referring to the ongoing flame wars about Bitcoin being dead and thought (and still think) it would be a good idea to add some humor, even if the topic is serious. Anyhow, I do agree that some people may feel a bit offended by this and just deleted these parts to make the start post as neutral as possible.
Thanks a lot in advance for your Bitcoin!
@memvola: Thanks a lot for your donations. Do you still think a new thread is needed or does the entry post suffice now?

Don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but what is the difference between this and me just claiming I'm giving it to poor kids?
Well, you can't link to a website available in two languages describing all the projects in detail and even showing many pictures from Tanzania, do you? Maybe the fact that we are now listed on Bitcoins for charity and our German Wikipedia article could add some more credibility. If you are still in doubt, feel free to tell me which other proof you need to be sure that this organization is no scam.@memvola: Thanks a lot for your donations.

This is a 100% legit organization with a web presence spanning several years. Whois and WayBack confirms this, therefore I didn't take the time to see if there's a Tom Williams somewhere in the organization, for if there is, it'll be a different TW.
Bruno
Thank you both for donating even more, respectively keeping your word. You guys rock!
