Post Body

[Update]

We closed the event now :) Any further tips will go to the foundation.

Here is proof that I sent the last 40k~.

Here is /u/moolah_ confirming he sent the first 1.1mil :)


/u/moolah_ was hosting a charity type giveaway here where he offered to give one million Doge to a charity mentioned. As you you can see here, he picked my charity, so I figured I might as well turn this into a little event to see if any other Shibes felt like donating :)


I decided on CharityWater.org as the charity I would like to make a event for.

My logic is something my mother always explained to me. Our buying power in the western world is much more powerful then it is in the poor parts of Africa. That is why sponsoring a child for $30 a month is enough to change that childs life - $30 a month has a much higher buying power.

You can pay for a water well to be put in to give water to a entire community for only a few thousand dollars. That can save and help A LOT of lives for a cost we each make in a month to a couple months.

  • They are non-profit and have private donors pay for all of the staff and accommodations, meaning 100% of the public donations go to funding the water projects.

  • They are highly ranked in the "% of donations actually go to the charity and not the CEO list", which is actually a scary list because some of the well known charity's are pretty damn low on it 0.o

The reason I want to do water is, not only because we have the buying power to help that part of the world, but because it is something so crucial.

  • Water is needed to live.

  • Water is needed for hygiene (to prevent diseases).

  • Water being in a local place gives more people time to go to school or do other work, since the walk to get the water in jugs can take hours normally, and now will take 15 minutes.

  • They can use the extra time and new water source to start a vegetable garden and feed people or sell it in the markets.

  • The kids of the village can spend time at school instead of doing water runs all day, meaning they can get a education and becomes doctors/teachers/business owners or what have you.

Water is just so crucial and can affect so many people immediately. This is the one I truly feel we should go for.


How to donate: I feel like I am a trusted Shibe overall and help this community out overall, so the actual address I am providing for the event will be the following.

address now gone woopwoop

If, however, you do not trust me, but you trust /u/moohlah_(the creator of moolah.ch, of the Dogecoin ATMs etc), you can tip him directly by commenting here and tipping like so

/u/dogetipbot @moolah_ x doge verify

(Yes, /u/mohland is a sneaky bastard and snuck in that @code. I saw him do it himself before. Blew my mind)

Also, if you do the tipping route to /u/moolah_, please add 'verify' at the end of the tip. I would hate to see any false tips and us end up taking even more from him then he agreed too. Hes already donating one million Doge :)
