RE: Supporting Freewrite House and SBI - Giving away 75 SBI shares!
@mariannewest is a big reason why I continue on Steem
There are some key people on the blockchain and as long as they are here, I will be here
Marianne is the first to make this list haha
And I am truly hoping to meet her one day .... soon
That's how I feel too @kaerpediem. Do you have any specific reasons you can share?
I can't remember the Venezuelan's username but she needed to get a surgery done
And her insurance backed out at the last minute
So Marianne, decided to give all the Steem she was earning from her posts from there on til enough to help out
She also called out to the Free Writers if they so wanted to help out
The surgery was a success, and they were so grateful
Marianne did not know this person and did it in good faith
I did know Marianne and did it in good faith though I did not contribute anywhere close to what Marianne did
This will always be my first reason to stay with Steem - @mariannewest and her band of merry FreeWriters...
@cefralelo es la usuaria venezolana que recibió la ayuda... @kaerpediem
Ditto that! And what ntowl said: @freewritehouse, besides being a welcoming supporting community, has used Steem "to help REAL people struggling with REAL LIFE issues." They've run campaigns to support those in Venezuela when their economy crashed. They've raised funds for individual members when they've needed the help.
Who'd punish a community for that??
Right?! That's why I think it must be ignorance of the good they do. Thank you for piping in!
