Announcement: AidBit's First Humanitarian ProjectThe main ideaOur humanitarian operation will be divided in two parts. Today we will present the first part - our own humanitarian project. We've reviewed and considered various projects and decided for a project that we find most suitable for our current financial and logistical capabilities. The project was initially suggested by our main dev.
We've decided to partner with one of the local non-profit self-service stores for disadvantaged and socially isolated families and youth. The store is led by humanitarian society called Kali. The organization provides help to disadvantaged families and youth in form of non-profit self-service stores, various courses and self-help classes intended to:
-improve the situation they've found themselves in;
-teach them essential skills and knowledge needed for life;
-give them a chance to work and develop their potential;
-improve their self image and feeling of usefulness;
-make them aware they're not alone in the current situation;
-return their optimism and will to live.
ImplementationAt the beginning we will offer our help in the form of essential supplies (flour, sugar, milk, rice, pasta...) for their non-profit self-service store (the items in the store are not sold but given free of charge on case-by-case basis). The quantities and duration of project are still being discussed.
TransparencyWe will cover every detail of the operation. From initial exchange of funds to EUR, through to buying and delivery of supplies. We will video and or photo document various stages of the project and provide information to local media.
One of the main advantages of this project is that we do not need huge financial resources but still reach and help dozens of disadvantaged individuals. This project will also allow the funds collected to be gradually spent, not causing substantial shock to the market. We will publish detailed information on our webpage shortly.
Thank you,
