Steem Charity News @ 14 August 2021 - From Small Beginnings...

One of the things that has always pleased me most on Steem has been the charitable projects.

Back in 2018 I was so happy when @adollaraday managed to raise $5000 to support a dozen or so small charitable groups around the world.

Now charitable work on Steem is moving up to a new level.

There are so many great projects from Steem.Amal's house building and @sultan-aceh's Steem Assisted Village project in Indonesia, to SteemFoods feeding families, SteemWomensClub helping children, and other great work from SL Charity, Team Mango and several others.

And now in Venezuela @mariana4ve and @el-nailul, through the World Smile Project, are starting on building a house for Manuel and his family.

Some of these activities are included in Steem News, but there is so much going on it really needs its own publication to cover it all.

So here is Steem Charity News, a weekly digest of the main activities and projects being undertaken by Steem based humanitarian and charitable groups and individuals.

This is Steem at its best.

1. World Smile Project - A House for Manuel

Steem.Amal Program Manager @el-nailul a few months back set up the World Smile Project to work on other projects and in other countries beyond Indonesia.

He soon made contact with @mariana4ve in Venezuela, and one of their first projects was a food donation program for families in need.

Now they have moved on to something bigger.

Inspired by the Steem.Amal house building program in Indonesia, the World Smile Project in Venezuela is starting on a new project to build a house for Manuel and his family in Montalbán...

It is very impressive, and very inspiring, to see so much charitable activity on Steem.

Hopefully this can help to demonstrate the potential of the Community and the Blockchain.

I am sure there are many other projects that I haven't included in this roundup.

Please post in the comments below or contact me on Discord (Pennsif#9921) if you are involved in a charitable project on Steem that you would like to be considered for the next edition of Steem Charity News.

Thank you

Pennsif
