Hello everyone! Yesterday was unproductive day to me. I didn’t write nor posted any article as I only planned to relax for the whole day. But I got bored doing nothing and out of nowhere I checked my email and I was surprised to find @sndbox’s message on my inbox. I couldn’t believe that I was accepted!

I am so grateful to @jassennessaj for nominating me to @sndbox. Thanks buddy for believing in me! And to all my @SteemPH Family, thank you guys for your support and for commending me to lead @SteemPH.Iligan Community!

Today is my 69th day in steemit community. I’m so thankful to all the people behind my progress here in this platform! Before I discovered steemit I was just an unemployed ceramics engineer with big dreams but with no direction in life. Then I stumbled upon @jerrybanfield’s video about steemit. I got so interested and so I joined! Today I am a proud steemian with a reputation of 61. I helped established @SteemPH.Iligan community with the aid of @precise and @SteemPH’s @bearone and @dreamiely. I am also one of the newest additions to @sndbox.

So basically, @sndbox is an incubator program dedicated to support individuals and communities for their creative works, community engagements and their efforts in helping out people thru steemit. Sndbox offers workshops and coaching to help you grow and progress significantly in your chosen field. Hence @sndbox empowers your creativity and your practice and helps you earn cryptocurrency via your social media content through their tips and upvotes.

Sndbox also supports cultivating community growth and engagement on steemit through the sndcastle projects!

Sndcastle Projects are community hotspots that educate content creators about STEEM and other blockchain resources. Sndcastle's are storefronts, workshops, classes, meetups, and non-profits all around the globe.

So as one of the core leaders of @SteemPH.Iligan Community together with @louielowa and @juvyjabian, I find this sndcastle project to be very beneficial not just for me but for our community here in Iligan City! So let me take this opportunity to introduce to you @SteemPH.Iligan. Our community primarily aimed to help curators of @bayanihan projects and @steemph community find aspiring authors by endorsing determined steemians situated in Iligan City and neighboring towns by simply resteeming their quality posts.

“Building Community, Uniting People, Nurturing Creativeness, Taking Aptitude to the Next Level.”

SteemPH Iligan Community's mission is to provide communal unit for aspiring steemians in Iligan City and other neighboring towns through actual and virtual interaction with the help of steemit platform and participation in community building and other developmental projects.

We lived in a place of diverse culture and beliefs but I have faith in humanity and as an advocate of peace, I dreamed of a community where in a society of diverse cultures bond together, laugh together, help each other and commit to its holistic development in Iligan City and other neighboring towns. You can read the mission and vision statement of @SteemPH.Iligan HERE.

I also planned to reach out with the admins of I Am Mindanao Organization. Their group aimed to counter violent extremism in Mindanao and strengthen sense of pride as Mindanaoan. You can follow them on their facebook and twitter. Let us all educate ourselves about violent extremism in Mindanao.

We in SteemPH Iligan Community are committed to help our brothers and sisters in Iligan and other neighboring area. Starting this month I will raise funds for our future community development projects. As of today, I am cooperating with @louielowa on how we'll be able to help building Marawi with @SteemPH’s assistance. Although it is already declared that the war is over in Marawi, still the AFP didn’t proclaim the city to be safe.

Again, I am very grateful to @jassennessaj for nominating me to @sndbox! And also, thank you to @voronoi and to @hansikhouse for accepting me to be part of the community that they established! @Sndbox will be an instrument of growth for our community here in Iligan. Thank you again and God bless us all!
