Hi

Has anyone seen this? It’s all over FB. It’s a cool way to support charities across the BVI.

Not sure I understand how it works (maybe I am just daft) and I even watched the video. So you load the card then drinks are only $1? Are they specific drinks each bar makes for this reason? In the video he orders two "treasures" but then says he pays them like he pays anyone else- so are the drinks $1 or are we donating a $1 and then they cost the same as any other drink?
I would love to do this for my upcoming trip but don't want to look like an idiot when I have no idea how to use it.

Pretty sure the $1 is the donation. When you go to a bar you show them the donation purchase a drink and they stamp you passport

I think I still have a copy of the Drinking Man's Guide to the BVI.
Somebody should bring that back!

Thanks- Is each bar making a special cocktail for passport holders? That's kind of what it seemed like in the video....if not, I think they should! Added incentive to get into the program!

I thought the same thing, reminds of a version of the Drinking Mans guide. With a beneficial twist though!

We already drank the Kool-Aid (pun intended) and ordered passports for ourselves and coming guests and plan to be at the April 19th party. I really appreciate Dirk adding the much needed boating safety angle.
