Second Community Outreach; Project Covid-19: Supply to 50 (Now 70) families in Nigeria, Images {Donate👇}First community outreach (Supply to 20 families in Nigeria) completed successfullySponsor: Bitcointalk Project Covid19
Date: 14/05/2020We are going to provide supply for 20 families in Nigeria. I and Lauda worked it out with one of our Nigerian forum member (@CryptopreneurBrainboss). It was really hard to figure out the best solution to keep a balance of the essentials and number of families. We have spent 5 to 6 working hours in last three days to figure it out and came up with a budget of $35.50 per family. I will list the items we have decided to include in the supply. The details update will be updated on this post:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54432150 But right now we need to focus on collecting the funds. The total we are looking at $710.
May I request everyone to
spread the word so that we can quickly collect the funds and send the money to our friend so that he can start planning for everything, from buying the supplies to giving them out to the families in need.
Cheers,
List of items:Garri - 10kg = 3,000 Naira ($7.5)
Rice - 10kg = 5,000 Naira ($12.5)
Beans - 10kg = 2,000 Naira ($5)
Palm oil 2lt = 1,000naira (use to cook beans) $2.5
Groundnut oil 2lt = 1000naira (use to cook rice) $2.5
Onions - 3kg = 1,000 Naira $2.5
Salt 2pack = 200 Naira $0.5
Curry 12pack = 500 Naira $1.25
Tomatoes 12pack = 500 Naira $1.25
Total = 14,200 Naira = $35.5 for each family.
Overall Total = 284,000 Naira = $710
Item's will be bought in bulk (cartons,bags) and shared equally among the families
$1 = 400 +/- Naira, the price for the foodstuffs aren't constant so price might increase due to the closure of market because of the Corona virus pandemic.
Additional notes: As a result of the 24hrs lockdown and closure of all market in the state (
You can read more on that here), I volunteered to use my personal funds to commence the purchase of the foodstuffs and if possible deliver them to the 20 families before the 24hrs lockdown restarts. The foodstuffs are already on the way and when I recieve them, I'll update thread with pictures.
Due to additional logistics I decided to add an additional fund of $200 through my charity foundation {
BrainbossCares}. Our donation to the outreach will be used to buy additional foodstuffs and to cover other costs to carry-out the outreach.
Work is already in process, I was asked by @Royse777 and @Lauda to create awareness about this outreach and that's what this thread is all about, no donation is too small.
