How I was able to donate Books to school pupils with my little Campaign Bitcoin

[kryptqnick]

Helping children get notebooks for their school studies in regions that still teach kids to write in notebooks and where notebooks can be unaffordable to some families is a lovely deed. It's also really smart that you added Bitcoin-related questions and answers on the notebooks. It's a wonderful way to both help children and make them a little bit more aware of Bitcoin.
It's a wonderful way to give back to the community and to promote Bitcoin. I hope we'll see more people doing good things like that with Bitcoin.

You tried. I appreciate your Charity mindset. You have been doing this at the past. And it is only those who have the mindset to help the needy in the society can do these things. And in this time that inflation is skyrocket to the up, parents can't afford most of those things to their children and they need people help and here you are helping the needy in your location. And others have said, you have to adjust some of the images because their faces are showing and it is not good because let the PRIVACY of bitcoin should be respectful.

This is obviously another attempt to fish merit.
These photos are all edited that's why you ensured there was no background. Plus if you look closely you will notice that the images on the books the kids are holding is totally different from the Bitcoin ones you said you customized. Plus those don't look like kids in a school setting ( they are on flip flops and not on socks ) what school accepts that?  

These are just my observations probably you are not lying    

If you really want to spread love you will buy those books for those kids and don't even bother announcing it here  except you want something in return for your good deed.

Aims & Objective of the project

It should be obvious to forum members by now that posts like these are just schemes to fish merit.

Why are you so truthful and so cowardly that you don't have the courage to write from your main account? There is so much cynicism in your post. Look at Nigerian schools. Do they all support the standards of European schools? Therefore, there is no need to spit here; just be happy for the children or pass by.


OP, you're great. It is always considered that a book is the best gift. If you tell children about Bitcoin from a young age, you want them to believe that they will draw the right conclusions and be able to improve their future by using it. I really like such events, and I have great respect for those who help Nigerian children learn about new technologies in one way or another.

I also initiated something like this when I was Youth leader here in my place way back 2017 but those funds came from my own pockets through Bitcoin paying signature campaigns and through caroling as a fundraising. That activity ends very well and put a smile on more than a hundreds of kids faces in our elementary school and of course not only pupils but also out of school kids benefited that initiative.

When I was affected by stress, financial crisis, pandemic and the devastating super typhoon I was not able to continue that legacy and I did not even expect someone to help me out and unfortunately no one does but I will still find ways to do that again here in my community. I was actually the first guy who initiated that event here in my place. And I wanted to bring back that memories into life once again if I have enough funds soon.

Not only that but I also conducted free internet through UC and Operamini/freemium modded apps s40/s60/android way back 2012-2017, donated money and trophy anonymously on village activities, volunteered way back 2013 during the devastation of super typhoon Haiyan in coordination with our municipality and regional social welfare agencies, I also conducted free simcard registration last year up until now but recently I am a bit busy as I am serving as a law enforcement volunteer. Maybe I missed something but what is important here is that we show love to the society.

Well yeah I appreciate those people who initiated good deeds whole heartedly without expecting for something in return. We just share because we care. With the help of BitcoinTalk and Bitcoin itself all possibilities can be done and I thank the Legendary founder Satoshi Nakamoto for this opportunity, chances and perks, all the staff, devs, managers and fellow Bitcoiners around the world I thank you all for being part of my forum life.

To OP just continue what you already has started because good memories will remain in those innocent minds forever.

You sound so sure of your claims and I won't blame you since we have seen many users come with such a pattern to like you say fish for merits but instead of just concluding, why not drop concrete proof to show the user is just fishing for merits by using Bitcoin and the campaign earnings as a good storyline? Sometimes, we have no choice but to believe these things since we aren't there with them.

These are just my observations probably you are not lying    ;

They don't look like an observation, bruh. More like an allegation. Besides you still went on to state the user seems like a clout chaser so it's not an observation. I'd like to see you bring in more proof to back your claims.

[synchronym]

Wow this is very nice your initiative is very positive for the society you are promoting bitcoin like you are very good for children. May this initiative of yours be successful so that every child can get minimum knowledge about bitcoin because it is never possible for everyone what you have done for this initiative must be applauded so that children can learn better about bitcoin from scratch and working with bitcoin. It can improve the society. Seeing that you have taken this initiative, I also very much wish that I could give bitcoin books to children in our neighborhood schools so that children have an idea about bitcoin from a young age, how to work in bitcoin, how to learn bitcoin, etc. Once again I applaud you for the initiative.

[Obari]

I’m proud of you @op and I must say you’ve done well as I’m certain it’s not an easy task to carry out this kind of charity work especially with this rough and very harsh economy with very high rate of inflation and I must say well done for atleast remembering this kids as I’m sure the joy they must have gotten that very day was incomparable to none.
I saw the negative comment on this thread and I couldn’t help but laugh at a newbie account pointing fingers at a hero member account with over 600 merits and from the way that newbie account wrote, I’m sure there is a bigger brain behind it as it wasn’t nice of him or her to say such against someone who has spent his hard earned money on charity in a country like ours and please don’t let others negative energy kill yours and always stay steadfast in your good dealings.

Welcome op and I’m short of merits else would have given you atleast one for your kind gesture but I think I’m owing you one and I hope I remember to bless you when I get one.

It's been a while ever since I made a charitable donation that portrays the awareness of Bitcoin in my locality, so just as we began the month of February 2024, which also popularly known to be the month of love (i.e Saint Valentine), whereby people go about sharing gifts to family, friends and total strangers, a thought have been ringing in my head ever since to go spread some love, but due to  procrastination I was never able to execute my plan, not until few days ago when I finally started planning and could finally execute my plan two days ago (i.e 29th Feb) been the last day of the month of February 2024, by heading to a nearby government primary school to go share notebooks to it's pupils within my locality as could be seen in the pictures provided below with a small percentage of the little Bitcoin I have been privilege to earn/accumulate through signature campaign here on this forum since last year and of recent  (i.e Shuffle & Mega) organize by a reputable personality Sir "Little Mouse". Hence, the idea about sharing books to school pupils came to my mind, and we all know how important books happens to be an essential learning material which all pupils need to have for effective learning, but sometimes due to current economic hardship in my country, not all parents are able to afford a complete set of notebooks for all their kids for learning, of which with this little act of kindness of mine, I'm sure it did actually went a long way helping these kids have a semi complete set of learning materials worth having for effective learning.
So while thinking about how to share/donate these notebooks, an idea came to my mind, to not just only donate  notebook, but to do it in a Bitcoin way, and by that I mean instead of just buying ordinary notebooks and donate, I decided to add a little graphic design on the front cover of each of those notebooks with a basic Bitcoin Questions and Answers so as to enable these pupils whenever they have a look at it will be able to have a picturial view of what Bitcoin is all about, and know  some basic questions about Bitcoin, such as "What is Bitcoin?, Who invented Bitcoin? And What year was Bitcoin invented?", e.t.c As some pictures of the edited copies of the notebooks with the Basic Bitcoin Questions and Answers could all be seen below.

   
   
   

Aims & Objective of the project

There are two basic aims and objectives I had in mind when starting this project namely;

1. To spread love with a small percentage of the little Bitcoin I have been privilege to accumulate here on this forum, because just as February happens to be a month of love and Armsgiving, I thought it would be too bad of me if February passed me by without me sharing arms to those in need of it the most.

2. To spread the awareness of Bitcoin in a pictorial form (i.e Through the Question and Answers designed on the front cover of each of the notebooks donated), because just as we all know that a picture is more than a thousand words, I then decided to this time to create awareness in a picturial form, by donating books, pen, pencil and drinks to school pupils, as it all could be seen in the pictures down below.

   

Appreciation & Conclusion

First, I wish to thank Satoshi Nakamoto for inventing Bitcoin, which is the reason why we are all gathered here on this forum, and secondly, I wish to thank the management of the forum, the casino operators and campaign managers for giving us the privilege to be able to earn here on this forum, and including myself who today im able to use a few percentage of my earning to touch lives, and I feel very grateful, as all these would never have been possible without the good works of our reputable and hardworking campaign managers "Little Mouse, Hhampuz and Royse777". It's was indeed a pleasure working with you all.

OP, you've done a good job, as a Nigerian, I am in the know of the difficulties our primary school pupils go through especially those in the rural areas, where some of the pupils don't have writing materials and a whole lot of other basic learning materials that they need yet they don't have it. OP you've shown a good level of humanity by giving these children this writing materials, at least it's your own little way of giving back to the society. the printed materials alone gives them the basic knowledge about bitcoin and what bitcoin entails and I'm proud of the fact that you where able to come up with these idea.

[Dunamisx]

This is impressive to see that someone like you can have the interest of the younger generation in mind to see them going to school and having all sufficiency of everything that could aid their learning process a successful one, giving back to the community is very important, as well as seeing that people are more interested on the younger generation, maybe some of them are just receiving their first privilege of hearing about bitcoin and they can turn a bitcoiner tomorrow and will never forget this opportunity they once had with bitcoin right from school.

Most of us can recognize merit fishing when we see one. I think this is the first time I’m seeing a newbie account accuse a hero member of merit fishing, it is usually the opposite. I think you’re so bent on finding something negative in the OP that you are willingly to ignore common sense. Some schools allow students to wear vests or mufti on Wednesday and Fridays, so it’s not surprising that the children in the photos aren’t all in uniforms. I’m yet to see @blackboss on this thread. He usually has something to say.

I don't know what your intention is when you post something like this. Is there any resentment or anger towards the creator of this topic? Aren't you just jealous because the OP is getting merit compared to you? Aren't you glad that there are children who are being helped because of what people did for these students?

If you do good, even if you have bad intentions, you will also reap good because what you sow will grow, meaning whether the person is good or bad, if you do good, you will reap good, and if the good person did bad things, you will reap bad results. Now, if anyone gives merit to this post made by OP, you don't care about what they did to give merit because it was their decision to give merit to OP. Why are you jealous because no one throws merit at you?

Anyway for me, op did a great job on this matter...

[Nwada001]

I like your idea of sharing and spreading love. It's good that we still have a few individuals who care and contribute the little they can afford to our young schoolchildren. It really goes a long way. 
 
Today the message might be to promote bitcoin in the little way that you can, but I see beyond that, this children and teachers who might not have been deriving joy from what they are doing due to that little kindness you show to the children.
 
You have put a smile on the faces of many, and it won't only stop there; it will spread over to the family of those kids because they will get home and share that good news with them. 
 
I so much admire your courage and effort to do something meaningful and valuable for them; you have really contributed to their educational journey. Thanks for spreading that genuine love.

We should learn to appreciate people's efforts in every little thing they do. Let's not allow envy or jealousy cloud or judgement. This guy has showed his love to school children, most of whom are less previledge, because of his kindness the kids will have writing materials and will not be out of school. We should learn to give back to the society no matter how little it might appears. Even if you think he did this for merit, that doesn't change the fact that he has impacted the lives of these children. He spent resources in doing it, and this is a clear investment in the lives of these ones. You don't know how difficult life is in most of the developing countries, especially in Africa, so whenever you see someone do something like this, you appreciate them and not kill their morale. If you think it's easy you can do yours. Let's learn how to spread love and not hate.

[someone703]

Thanks for sharing the info. Hold up, gotta be honest though, I'm seeing some red flags here. In this day and age, with all the stuff swirling around online, it's important to be skeptical, you know?

Like, the whole "bought school supplies with campaign money" thing sounds good, but have we seen any proof beyond the pictures? Pictures can be, well, deceiving. What about independent news sources talking about this?

Also, the details kinda raise some eyebrows. Flip flops in a school setting? Every school's different, but that's not exactly the usual uniform. And giving to those who already have resources? While charity is awesome, there might be folks out there who need it more.

Nice conclusion, @Crypt jrn. I am also wondering how a newbie who is less active on the forum and only has an 18-post count could be able to distinguish between posts that are obviously for merit fishing.

These photos are all edited that's why you ensured there was no background. Plus if you look closely you will notice that the images on the books the kids are holding is totally different from the Bitcoin ones you said you customized. Plus those don't look like kids in a school setting ( they are on flip flops and not on socks ) what school accepts that?

On the image, I can also see some students who are holding some of the customized Bitcoin books and standing by the board. If you really have evidence to prove that everything the OP has said is a lie, drop it here.

If you really want to spread love you will buy those books for those kids and don't even bother announcing it here  except you want something in return for your good deed.

This is a Bitcoin forum, and if anyone really does any activity that helps to promote Bitcoin via any means, it is never a bad idea to share the process and success of their activity carried out to promote Bitcoin. After reading this thread, you never know who can also get motivated to do the same thing in their country as well or might even take a different measure, but the idea will be drawn from OP. If you ask me, I would say that I don't see anything wrong with OP's post. 

Aims & Objective of the project

It should be obvious to forum members by now that posts like these are just schemes to fish merit.

Yeah, it is obvious that on this forum, there have been so many threads relating to this one, and most of those threads were only fabricated stories without even the OP putting up any picture to justify their claim. What is not obvious to me is that not everyone lies about those kinds of topics; some members usually add pictures that clearly describe the reality of what they are saying. I don't disagree that there are some people who can just make up fabricated stories for merit fishing. 

By the way, let me start by asking you how you suddenly know far too well about the forum and also stating that this kind of post is for obvious reasons of fishing for merit. I assume that you are probably an alt account and know too well about posts that are for merit fishing and so on. 


@OP, I think your little help to those kinds will help them too. Great work 👍

There’s nothing wrong in being skeptical. I think it’s a good trait to have. However I’m not sure what proof you would need. Independent news sources? You don’t really expect a news channel to publish this story, do you? OP donated notebooks to a school, I don’t think this act is going to get the attention of news blogs unless of course OP invited them.

Also, the details kinda raise some eyebrows. Flip flops in a school setting? Every school's different, but that's not exactly the usual uniform. And giving to those who already have resources? While charity is awesome, there might be folks out there who need it more.

If this was staged, how hard do you think it would be for OP to get school uniforms? I also don’t think that the kids have the resources, I believe OP picked a school that has children from a certain class to benefit from his charity project. There will always be people who need help, you can take the initiative and help those you feel are in need.

Well done my fellow country man. Despite the harsh economic realities gripping our nation due to escalating inflation, your ability to support these children is commendable. Whether the contribution was large or small in scale, what truly matters is the spirit of compassion and generosity driving your actions. You are playing your own role in bringing bitcoin awareness to the small corner where you are.

As for the fellow who says that they can't be school kids and all, I will say that fellow is writing from a place of ignorance.

Education in my country even at the primary level is still underfunding. In some rural communities, makeshift classrooms under mango trees serve as the only educational facilities available. Many children lack basic necessities such as backpacks, textbooks, proper footwear, or even uniforms. It is what is it, yet they go to school knowing that one day their education will change their situation.

[Asiska02]

Congratulations OP and this is a very good initiative that helps to share the knowledge of bitcoin and also share love in the community which you live in. Some people will always want to do charity for the society but procrastination and sometimes ability to do it always weaken those purpose. I am glad to see this again from you after a long time and truly you impress me a lot and much respect and accolades to you on this path you’ve decided to embark on for bitcoin and yourself. Keep up the good work OP, and you’ll one day see how your charity have thrived to help children and also bitcoin awareness for the future kids in general.

[Mia Chloe]

This is a very nice move and initiative Op. Nigeria is in an obvious state of economic hardship with price of things rising like wild fire. Overtime education has become more and more expensive with its quality dropping by the day. It is very lovely to see you make a good leap for kids like this.
I don't  know if you are religious but I hope that the prayers of these kids do help you especially financially.
You have made a memorable event in the life of those kids and the most interesting part is you made Bitcoin part of it. I wish if the school authority had permitted you you could have given them a very short lesson about Bitcoin with some added fun.
Once again it is lovely to see people like you help kids as well as impact Bitcoin in their little way.

[Synchronice]

It's very kind of you to donate books, pens, pencils and drinks to school pupils. I have seen similar threads and I am glad that bitcoin becomes inspiration for many people to start a charity to promote it.

Just keep in mind that probably first photo with Vendeta mask and the last photo might not be the best photos to show kids. By the way, some illustration and basic questions are a good idea to make kids interested in Bitcoin. The rest depends on them, they are too young to get interested in Bitcoin but small introduction will probably revive a lit to acquire more knowledge about Bitcoin, blockchain technologies and cryptocurrencies.
