Isn't dropping a bunch of money on a group of wanting persons going to incite a riot?  Or at least some pushing/shoving/fighting?  What's stopping non-homeless from hanging out and grabbing cash, too?  Great idea, but I think the execution of it needs a little work.

I think you overestimate the greediness of homeless people and underestimate the amount of planning that has gone into this event. I think a riot is far more likely to occur dropping $1 bills on Wall St. The area this drop will be taking place is highly populated with transients and it is very unlikely that there will be anyone nearby who isn't in need of charity.

Sounds like a good idea, but isnt it better to just give it to them?

Sounds like a cool idea. Just hope the money doesn't drop else where. And if the homeless guy happens to be sleeping or on the side of the building(which is true in many cases), then dropping it would be difficult.

The drop will take place during a time with little to no wind in an area heavily populated with homeless. We also have a designated "hype man" who will be wandering the area ahead of time handing out breakfast bars and supplies while alerting the homeless of what will be taking place.

This is the best idea I have ever heard/seen. Let me get to my wallet tomorrow morning and I'll hopefully donate something.

ok, i just want to say how this is a briliant idea, please consider making any other profit gained through youtube ad partnership
or something similar to be also donated, so that people would know youre honest with your intentions.
really hoping to see this go live!

cheers

There are no plans to profit through a YouTube ad partnership. Any currency received through any means will go towards dropping dollar bills on the homeless from a drone.

I have agreed to collect BTC for this "charity event" because as a drone owner I found it interesting.
I am collecting no fees and will release the funds to "MrDove" upon a reasonable demonstration that the event will take place.
Anyone interested in donating BTC for the drop can send to: 1CashDrop8FjtHybnkPLNSe2BgLpy5B8r1

MrDove is an acronym for a new charity event and a poke at the dovish behavior of the Federal Reserve bank.

Money
Raining
Down
Over
Vagrant
Environments

MrDove's intent is to donate money to the homeless in a unique and uplifting way that encourages others to do positive things. The MrDove team will produce a serious yet entertaining video with the hopes of inspiring others to participate in similar events. All donated bitcoins will be converted to dollars and dropped from a DJI built drone over an area of poverty-stricken Americans. The event will be recorded by several HD cameras and a link to the YouTube video will be tweeted from @MrDoveMoneyDrop.

Please consider making a donation to the designated escrow account.
