Wow! The numbers soon stack up.
Just 3 days ago I announced that I am restarting the A Dollar A Day charitable giving project.
Without hesitation three people who joined the project when I ran it last year have all jumped straight back in.
My massive thanks to @gmuxx, @mother2chicks and @HopeHuggs. Your generosity has really made me see the potential of this project.
As I have earnt some rewards from the posts about the project I am going to double up to 2 SBD a day. So between the four us, on the current SBD value, we will be donating over US$ 500 each month to good causes.
This is a truly amazing demonstration of the power of steem.
Imagine how the numbers could really climb on this.
If just five more people joined we would be up to US$ 1000 per month.
And what if 100 people joined in, that would be US$ 10,000 per month.
An impossible dream? Maybe, but think of the impact this sort of money could have in countries like Bangladesh, Indonesia, Venezuela or Nigeria.
Or even in 'developed countries' like the USA, Canada or Britain for projects like @tarc or @familyprotection.
I do find this a really exciting prospect.
If anyone is interested in joining in with this initiative do let me know.
I will be starting the daily donations on 1 May.
I will be handling the donations for @gmuxx and @mother2chicks. @HopeHuggs will be donating directly herself I believe.
All transactions will be done via the blockchain so anyone can track them but I will be doing regular reports on how the project is going with details of donations etc.
Initially I will be picking up where I left off last year and donating to many of the same good causes including :
- @dreamsoftheocean run by @surfermarly
- @papilloncharity run by Stephen and Marian in South Africa
- @schoolforsdg4 run by @azizbd
- @tarc run by @RhondaK
- @YouAreHope and @malos10
I will also be looking for new groups and individuals to donate to like @bigdude and @steemhelpinghand (run by @phunke, @stevenmosoes, @stevendion and @thomasgift).
If you know of any other good causes on steemit that we might donate to please let me know.
