Thanks Alex, well why didnt you say so, LOL, just kidding.
OK, I see where you are coming from. I had a strong consternation against taking away from the 2.8M from compassion originally, as I knew that real danger of not prepaying in advance, but this comment above paints it in a different light.
We are basically saying lets consider this proposal for payment outside of the charity budget - at the expense of some of the other categories. Since we are a compassionate organization, well then Yes, I say Yes to that in Jesus name.
April said the following in summary:
880,000 BBP ($2640) to cover 10 children in emergency status for 3 months in Rakai, Uganda (ideally to continue in 3 month increments for same 10 kids)
108,000 BBP ($324) to feed 3 children at the Sierra Leone orphanage for 3 months (ideally to continue in 3 month increments for same 3 kids, and possibly add more kids each time a superblock is reached)
Total Request: 988,000 BBP
She wants us to sponsor 10 children in emergency status for 3 months, and feed 3 children in Sierra Leone for 3 months.
So if you want to bend my arm, I still have 4 small issues Id like to take care of- if we can knock these out I would vote YES:
1)
From an IT perspective, what I would like to do is : See a bio for these 10 children from an HTTP link, so that I can enter these 10 children in our database if this proposal passes. All I need is a public HTTP page with 10 links for these 10 children.
2) I would like an address where we can mail physical letters to - one concentrated address, so that our online letter system may dump this to paper, and Ill ensure the letters are mailed to Aprils letter address.
3) I would like bio links for the 3 children in Sierra Leone we are feeding, but in this case, I will modify our system so investors can see the category desgination (something like MEALS_PROGRAM) or something - In summary for #3, just the ability to click Bios of these 3 kids also.
4) April will handle the liquidation of the BBP from her organization, and spend it for us, Rob will not need to convert BBP -> BTC for BLOOM
.
April, would you be able to make these 4 things happen? If so Ill vote Yes on this proposal.
