There are many people in need. No-one can help everyone but if we all do a bit, you'll be surprised how quickly the world changes.
Happy Steeming
It's great to continue to read about people on this platform doing great things! Happy to be a part of such a giving community and hoping I will be able to do the same someday. Thanks to all of you!
That's exactly how it should work in the real world.
Community grassroots taking action - being much more effective than government bureaucracies. Charity has also been hijacked, centralized by unsavory NGOs and individuals.
It's good to see benevolence happen in the Steemit world as designed by our Creator.

This is awesome! Brilliant that Steem is able to make such a incredible impact. I am so excited for what the future holds!! :) By the way, I really like that first picture! Did you make it?
Hi, thanks for the support, the image was made by @artwatch and came out of a logo competition
That's so cool. Haha I suppose that's one way to get people to make some unique logo's for Steemit lol :P
im excited about steem and i want to see how great potential have to rise up to other crypto
This is a good plan
Thank.
Oh wow this is great thanks to everyone who donated. Steemit is truly one of the best communities on the internet today. I can only imagine what this place will be like in 10 years.
I couldn't agree with you more.
I love the possibilities of how this platform can unite us around the world, and empower one another with ideas, advice and even currency. Here's to all that's yet to come!
This is AWESOME!
Love what you all are doing. Big respect!
Thanks for putting this list together, I was aware of some of the authors but not all. Cheers

Have my upvote, sir : )
Thank you. I like your logo! :)
Hehe, yes your logo contest was quite sccessful. You chose what I think is the best logo for giving-steem and your cause (which I also wrote in your post). Then I started to LOVE the submission from @artwatch who was runner-up. It's just perfect for my use. So I paid the guy. Everyone happy : )
Actually dinoo, would you mind using a different logo because i'm not all that happy? Perhaps you could run a logo competition of your own, it's great for involving the artists in this community. I understand from your posts that you are giving liquid steem from some of your posts to the @adra charity. That is marvelous. But perhaps using an adra logo might be more appropriate? I ran the logo competition in good faith, I am surprised that @artwatch has resold the image and will look a bit more into this. I'm very happy that you are giving steem but there is a difference between what the Giving Steem initiative is trying to do and what adra is doing. Please, would you mind simply choosing a different logo?
Hm, that's a bit surprizing actually. In your post you state clearly, that the logo of @artwatch is not your choice, probably because it is a bit too complex and not really logo-ish. Therefore you chose a different one. With no word it is mentioned, that the submission of @artwatch is now your property. That was his view as well. It was not claimed by you, so he offers it with his usual terms. Pay a fee and inform him about the utilization. That's what I did. Also, I'm not really using it for @adra. When @adra posts or I post about my work at @adra, I use the ADRA logo. I'm currently using it primarily as my own profile picture, as it reflects perfectly what I'm doing and planning to do with another project. Yes, please have a look into the matter, as I don't necessarily understand your claim.
Edit: Ok, I correct that with not mentioning you won't use the design of @artwatch.
I have sent a message to @artwatch. If you search my wallet history, you'll clearly see a payment to @artwatch 17 days ago with the memo "Agreed additional steem for open use of giving steem submission - thank you." I made an arrangement with @artwatch in good faith and paid for the use of the image despite it not winning the competition. You can clearly see from my posts how I am using them in combination to help create the Giving Steem initiative and I do indeed have every claim.
I'm sure you can understand that someone who ran a competition to commission the work of artists to help build an initiative and paid them all in good faith would feel that it was not appropriate for someone else to co-opt the use of those images? Can you not run your own competition to produce your own images? I appreciate you like the image, that was the idea. I'm sorry this has happened....I don't understand why you would want to use an image that was already in use but I guess you didn't mean any harm.
I was indeed under the impression, that the image was not in use and you only claimed the actuall winning logo. As I liked the image I wanted to give it some good use to not be wasted. That was my mistake. Thanks for the clarification, I will use something else then.
@dinoo I am pretty upset that this has happened, but not with you. Perhaps you could tell me more about the project you wanted to use the image for? If they are aligned closely enough then maybe it can work out. Certainly giving steem to adra is not in alignment but perhaps your new project will be. Anyway, I'm happy to see if you like.
Haha, you will laugh now, actually, well, let's chat about that on steem.chat
Ok great :)
Thank you so much for a great chat @dinoo. It was a pleasure to meet you and i'm very excited to help you with your superb idea for helping Steemians to give steem to one and other! It is most fitting for you to use the logo you love, founded as your idea is in the integrity and utility afforded to us by the steem chain. It sounds like progress to me, perfect.
