Challenge Poverty (with YouTube & Save the Children) Please read the sidebar for important information! VOTING IS STILL OPEN! You get to decide what I do with Save the Children. There are five options and there is enough money to do either one big thing or 2 or 3 of the smaller options. The money for this comes from the hundreds of people from around the world who have already donated to me via PayPal. "The Uncultured Project" is just a funny name for my work trying to help those less fortunate in developing countries. It's not a charity, NGO, or anything like that. It's about what we as individuals united together can do to make a difference in the world. Find out more at: http://uncultured.com and http://youtube.com/UnculturedProject DON'T feel obliged to donate to me - I'm not a charity! I'm just a guy. You'll find more information here: http://uncultured.com/donations HOW TO VOTE: You don't need to have made a donation in order to vote! Make a VIDEO RESPONSE and let me know which option you'd like me to do! You can also leave a text comment if you prefer, but I'd like to give more weight to video responses. THE OPTIONS: - Build a Deep Tube Well - Build a Pond Sand Filter (aka PSF or Biosand Filter) - Provide 80 Salter Scales to Fight Malnutrition - Build a School Latrine - Repair a School Damaged by Cyclone Sidr IMPORTANT NOTE: There is enough money to rebuild the school OR 2 or 3 of any of the other options. I'd like to thank Save the Children USA for their assistance and support in helping me to do this. I'd also like to give my heartfelt thanks to the Save the Children staff at the following offices: Westport (USA), Dhaka, Barisal, and Barguna. I'd also like to thank Jamison Young, Stefan D, and Josh Woodward for lending their music for this video. Jamison Young ("How Far" - intro music) http://jamyoung.net/ Stefan D ("Best Mind") http://www.furaxe.qc.ca/stefand/ Josh Woodward ("Shower Scene Instrumental") http://www.joshwoodward.com/ Last but not least, I'd like to thank the following YouTubers for collaborating with me on this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/AngelLife999 http://www.youtube.com/user/windago http://www.youtube.com/user/thechico1979 http://www.youtube.com/user/1Day2BeAwesome http://www.youtube.com/user/Aceswolf http://www.youtube.com/user/xokiikster http://www.youtube.com/user/Maddog53 http://www.youtube.com/user/vlogbrothers I apologize for not making a video earlier. It took a while to make this happen! It also didn't help that my 3-month old LaCie harddrive died with a lot of important footage on it. I was already making this video when it died and had to start from scratch. Don't. Buy. LaCie. Subtitle Typo: The subtitles for the lady speaking about the deep tube well was meant to read as "It feels good to have this because all of us can use this TO drink and wash our food & dishes". This was a bit difficult to translate and I had to actually consult two different people to help me translate this. In the process I seemed to have overlooked this grammatical typo.

Using YouTube with a Purpose - Helping Kids in Bangladesh "This is probably the coolest thing that has ever happened to me." - Hank Green If it wasn't for YouTube, I couldn't have done this. It's thanks to YouTube that I was able to team up with Rick Davis - an American school teacher in Bangladesh who got in contact with me after finding one of my videos on YouTube. He helped pay and plan this trip this rural village in a military-controlled and malaria heavy part of Bangladesh. And, of course, I couldn't have done this without the support of John and Hank Green and all the Nerdfigthers out there. Hank Green's donation went to Rithanu - an 11 year old malaria survivor. Hank's YouTube channel is: http://youtube.com/vlogbrothers Patrick's donation went to help 7 year old Jack (who, if I heard correctly from the locals, is also a malaria survivor). Patrick's YouTube channel is: http://youtube.com/hyrcan The donation of a PermaNet (a long lasting insecticide treated mosquito net) was made possible with the help of Vestergaard-Frandsen. Vestergaard-Frandsen manufactures PermaNets along with other products that help control the spread of disease in the developing world. You can find more information at: http://www.PermaNet.com http://www.Vestergaard-Frandsen.com http://YouTube.com/VestergaardFrandsen I was neither paid nor required to endorse their products. I endorse them because their products work - I've witnessed this first hand. If you'd like to donate one of their products, check out my recommended charities list: http://uncultured.com/charities The music for this video was provided by some amazingly talented artists who release their music for free under the Creative Commons. The music used in this video (in order used) include: "How Far" by Jamison Young "Borderline" by Brad Sucks "I Wanna Know" by Josh Woodward You can find more about these artists by checking out their websites and YouTube channels: Jamison Young: http://jamyoung.net/ http://youtube.com/jamisony Brad Sucks http://jamyoung.net/ http://youtube.com/jamisony Josh Woodward http://www.joshwoodward.com http://youtube.com/joshwoodward Full Disclosure Regarding Rick Davis: Rick Davis (the teacher at the American International School in Dhaka) is associated with this NGO and helped design the sponsorship program. His involvement with this NGO is voluntary and unpaid. He was not paid nor financially benefits from endorsing this NGO's sponsorship program.

Hank, John, and a Journey Through the Chittagong Hill-Tracts This is what I mean when I say "YouTube with a Purpose". It's thanks to YouTube that John Green (in Indianapolis) and Hank Green (in Missoula, Montana) were able to connect to me here in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Using a donation from Hank, I was able to help a needy family in a remote (and military controlled) region of Bangladesh called the Chittagong Hill-Tracts. The journey was quite long and this video helps the highlight how remote this region is. If this is the first time you've seen one of my videos, here are the basics: I'm not an NGO, charity, or someone looking to become a YouTube celebrity. This is just my way of inspiring others, paying it forward, and changing the conversation about global poverty. You can learn more about my work at my website: http://uncultured.com I can't thank Hank and John enough for all the support they've lent. Their channel, of course, is: http://youtube.com/vlogbrothers To keep this video short, I had to cut a lot out. Here are is the playlist of deleted scenes for this video: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A1F0B49B1177351C The internet connection here in Bangladesh is horrible for doing stuff like uploading videos to YouTube. It takes a lot of hard work and I couldn't do it without a lot of help from friends. This video was uploaded with the help of my friend Alan. Check his channel out here: http://youtube.com/fallofautumndistro For a list of recommended charities, check out: http://uncultured.com/charities If you'd like to make a donation to me, please read this first: http://uncultured.com/donations Thanks to Stefan D and Brad Sucks for lending their music to this video.

Paying It Forward In this episode, I talk about starting to accept donations, paying it forward, and what it's like to talk to high school students at the American International School in Dhaka about The Uncultured Project. For more information on my work in Bangladesh, check out my blog: http://uncultured.com After talking it over with a lot of friends, I've decided to start accepting donations for my work here. For more information as to how I will spend that money, or if you want to make a donation, check out: http://uncultured.com/donations Please don't feel obligated to make a donation. I've been trying to change the conversation about global poverty with my work on YouTube. Let's start by using YouTube in a new way. if anyone who has made a donation - please consider posting a video response. Include your PayPal Confirmation Number in the Sidebar and maybe write (in the sidebar) and/or talk (in the video) a little bit about why you decided to donate to me instead of a charity or NGO. I'll try my best to watch as many as I can even though the internet connection in Bangladesh is worse than dialup. If you prefer to donate to an established charity (which is also tax-deductible), check out: http://uncultured.com/charities Full Disclosure: Since uploading this video, I received an email from one of the teachers at this school who points out that the cost of tuition is around $20,000 - not $26,000. This is the base cost and does not include additional costs such as extra curricular activities. Either way, I still couldn't afford to go to this place...

World Malaria Day Did you know that it would only take ONE DAY'S worth of Pentagon funding to provide protection against malaria for every man, woman, and child in Africa for five years? Don't take my word for it - economist Dr. Jeffrey Sachs (author of "The End of Poverty") did the math. April 25th is World Malaria Day. To help commemorate this day, I decided to share some of the work I have been doing here in Bangladesh that have focused on fighting malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases. Some of this might be a bit familiar (from previous videos) and the rest is either previously unseen or new footage. For more information on my work in Bangladesh, check out my blog: http://uncultured.com For information on Vestergaard-Frandsen and their long-lasting, tear-resistant, dirt-resistant, insecticide treated mosquito net, check out: http://www.permanet.com http://www.vestergaard-frandsen.com My sincerest thanks goes to the staff at Vestergaard-Frandsen (especially their Swiss and Indian branches) for making this possible. Full Disclosure: Although Vestergaard-Frandsen donated several items for me to distribute to the needy as part of my project, I was neither paid nor required to endorse their projects. I recommend their products without reservation and encourage others to look for charities that distribute products by Vestergaard-Frandsen (such as PermaNet). For a list of a few charities that do distribute such products, check out this link: http://uncultured.com/charities Earth graphics were rendered using Google Earth Pro (trial version) and screen capture software. Why is it that the only version of Google Earth that exports video cost $400? They don't even offer student and/or non-profit discounts. :-( The music used in this video is "Sad Robot" (non-vocal) by Pornophonique.

The Struggle to Afford High School Textbooks A year's worth of textbooks for a student in Grade Nine in rural Bangladesh cost about $13 US Dollars. But many high school students drop out because they can't afford to buy them. In this short video, I meet a Grade Nine student struggling to buy his textbooks for the year. I buy the books for him and - to show his thanks - he sings a song. Here is some information in Bangladesh Rickshaw Drivers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rickshaw#Bangladesh I dedicate this video to all those watching my videos from High Schools back home.

Changing the Conversation about Global Poverty Here's an idea: let's talk about global poverty in a way that doesn't make us feel guilty for living in the developed world or makes us feel obligated to give money. In this video I give thanks to all those who have subscribed to this channel (over 1,600!) and talk about how my approach to talking about important issues like global poverty is different from the YouTube channels run by big name NGOs and charities.

The Young Hardworking Poor of Rural Bangladesh The poor aren't lazy. In this video I meet 30 kids who were forced to choose between either putting food on the table or getting an education. They are able to study part-time (for two hours each day) because local community members in this rural village pooled their money to form an informal school. The school teacher teaches these children English, Bengali, and Math all for a salary of $15 a month. Part Two is Available Here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=83edvBwXJKI For more information about what I'm doing in Bangladesh, check out my blog at: http://uncultured.com In the video, one of the kids said he sells "paan". Here is some info on what that is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paan By request, I am including a link for more information on Bangladesh: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangladesh Bangladesh is a small country with over 150 million people (half the population of the USA) in South Asia. It is not Mexico (!?). About My Reaction to the Various Names: This video isn't scripted - those were my genuine reactions at the time. I still have problems pronouncing the various Muslim names in this country. The regional accent made it even harder to understand the names. One of the reasons I asked "You're Muslim and your name is Johnny?" is because Western/European names are usually common with the Christian community that lives in an adjacent town.

An Update from a Rice Field It's kind of weird making a video in the middle of a place where no one has ever heard of YouTube. In this video, I clarify some stuff from my previous video. I also talk about my "Xbox 360 Challenge" where I decide to spend the money I had originally saved on an Xbox 360 to try and help the poor in Bangladesh. I set myself three rules for this: 1) I can't just give it away as cash. 2) It has to be a hand-up, not a hand-out. 3) I have to learn from the locals and figure out what they need.

Cyclone Sidr Disaster - Helping Kids with Save the Children On my third day in the Bagerhat disaster area caused by Cyclone Sidr, I teamed up with Nick Downie from Save the Children. We went to a remote region that could only be reached by boat. I brought some blankets (which I bought with my own money) to give away to the poorest of the poor. In addition, we also collected water samples from various areas to see if water filters could be attached to provide clean water for the locals. This video is not recommended for young children.

To Phil, From Bangladesh YouTube's community is its biggest strength. I want to talk about important issues such global poverty and the hardships they face (like the recent disaster caused by Cyclone Sidr) in a way that uses the power of YouTube and its community. This is my submission to sxephil's "How to Get a Popular Show/Series/Vlog" contest. I am thankful for all my subscribes (all 12 of them) and those who already watch my videos. I'm not trying to become a YouTube celebrity - but I am hoping to get more people interested in the issues and inspired by potential solutions to some of the world's biggest problems. If you have questions about what my plans are "when I get back" or why I would like to have more views please read my blog post here: http://uncultured.com/2007/12/04/sxephil-contest/ I've also answered some of those questions in the comments attached to this video. If you haven't heard of Cyclone Sidr or what its impact has been, check out: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7102833.stm and http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7107176.stm I have tagged along with a Canadian NGO trying to provide clean water for the survivors of Cyclone Sidr.

After Cyclone Sidr - My View from Dhaka After a devastating cyclone which has left over 3,000 dead - what is often left out is how quick many parts of Bangladesh has recovered. Dhaka City was a city that had trees blocking roads, power lines collapsed, and many low income houses were blown apart. Yet, people in this city have slowly rebuilt. But that's just the good news. The bad news is there are a lot of people still suffering and they need your help. I am in Bangladesh working on my own Project to help the poor - but I'm not taking (or asking for) any money. If you want to make a donation, consider the following places: The Red Cross http://www.redcross.org CARE International. http://www.care.org Muslim Aid http://www.muslimaid.org World Vision http://www.worldvision.org Few of these are secular charities, but aid will be given to all regardless of religious affiliation.

Poor But Not Working Poorly Poor people aren't lazy. Especially in the third world, they are some of the hardest working people. But even working hard doesn't mean you can break out of the cycle of poverty. Recently, I had the opportunity to meet this really inspiring 15 year old. He supports his mother on about $2 a day by running a recycling business in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He trades used bottles for vegetables and then sells the bottles at a profit. As inspiring as this is - $2 a day isn't enough to break the cycle of poverty. It's barely enough to avoid falling back into extreme poverty. And, even though I am here in Bangladesh, I am still unsure what I can do to make a lasting difference in the lives of the poorest of the poor. Advice and inspiration from the YouTube community is definitely welcome. Thanks for subscribing - those who subscribed up until now, watch until the end for a shoutout.

South Bend to South Asia What can convince someone to put (grad) school on hold and come to a Third World Country? One man, one book, and an issue important that is important to the entire world. Global Poverty can be eliminated in the lifetime of the average YouTuber. That's what Dr. Jeffrey Sachs (author of the book "The End of Poverty") claims. This needs to be the important issue of our generation. I am just trying to make this issue accessible in a way that doesn't nag you to send your money, write your congressman, or make you feel bad about how fortunate you are to live in the developed world. I'm not a charity, NGO, or anything like that - I'm just some guy trying to use YouTube for a positive purpose.
