#SteemGigs Offer (3rd Time FTW?)๐ŸŒ€ Now With 24 + 9 SBD Up for Grabs! (With SARDINES?!)

in #steemgig โ€ข 7 years ago (edited)


I'm a bit surprised! This hasn't been very successful at all so far. So we'll throw in a BONUS and up the offer a bit more! Because of the nature of the request, I don't think it should go any higher though...

I propose a #steemgig, to give 7 SBD each, to the first 3 steemians who do the following:

#SteemGig Mission: To give to a charitable organization, at least 2x, full or nearly full, green garbage type bags (or the equivalent,) of used (but clean and still usable,) clothing, toys, books, linens, shoes, or other necessities... (If you have lots of big, bulky stuff like blankets or jackets, let's please make it 3 bags!)


  1. Take a photo or two, of some of the stuff that is going in the bags.ย 
  2. Do something to make us realize you made the donation, like by attaching a sticker, or paper that says Steemit.com onto one of the bags. Or by taking a photo of you or someone else holding up the current date and a bag-full.
  3. Take a photo of yourself or someone putting them in the charity's dropbox, or walking into the drop-off centre with them. (Can combine with no. 2.) (No need to ever show your face.)
  4. Make a post on your own blog, with your photos and telling us about what you did, or if you want, about the charity, or who it will benefit. Please tag your post with #steemgig (s). Tag it however else you want too!
  5. Drop a link to your post in the comments of this article.
  6. Bonus 1 SBD each, and mitzvah/karma/brownie points if you get kids involved in the giving!

(Who knows what will happen for the 4th+ participant!)

So just grab some old stuff you don't need anymore, put it it a couple of these...

And make a post, and comment here after generously putting them in one of these, (or some other equivalent...)

Due to crazily changing SBD prices, this offer can only be valid until post payout. If I wasn't clear on anything, or if you have any questions, please ask! If you have a suggestion for how to make this work, I'm open to it!ย 


SarDINe Bonus! (ื“ึดึผื™ืŸ)


Ok, this may sound weird! But I offer to give 2 SBD each, to the first 3 people who using the same rules as above, donate 2 small tins of sardines (they must be sardines!) to your local food bank, or drop-off bin in your grocery store. (In Toronto, virtually every grocery has one near the cash-out.) If you can find a way to give them directly to someone who needs them, that would be ok too, so long as you can do it in a way which causes them no embarrassment. If you do this with your kids, then it's 3 SBD!

Have Fun! :)

Love this idea! So much so that please let me know as I will send prizes too. And if no one does this then I will sometime next month when I am in Las Vegas. Come on people let's use some of this STEEM for people who really need it. That is part of the point!
#steemgig & #charity +2

Wow! That's really great of you to offer your help and support! Thanks! I've already set aside the SBD for this round, and I'd love them to get spent! But next time I'd gladly add whatever you would like to contribute. I don't feel that each individual reward should be any higher, but we could offer it to more people, and create more charity with your help!

Well I โค ฯ•! Welcome,
Understand and appreciate your message being an Eagle Scout.

Have a great weekend :)

You too.
Every weekend is a great weekend. :)

So much sweetness on your part! Thank you alot!

This is a really good initiative kudos to you for coming up with it!

I had a 'Spring clean' last weekend and gave away quite a few bags full of things to a local charity shop, but I didn't think to take photos of myself doing it. doh

Thanks! It's cool to hear you do this anyways! Nice!

How much time do we have left to do this? I may be your guy

Awesome! Until post payout, which should be next friday around lunchtime, E.S.T. If it somehow pays out later than evening time, I'll make the transfer sometime late Saturday night...

Done sir. I actually had a pretty good time doing it. So thanks. and I will be posting my own steemgig soon now. Spread out some of the SBD's you give me for this, and help an organization I like. Heres the link to my post ---> https://steemit.com/steemgig/@drpuffnstuff/getting-paid-to-do-something-i-already-do-via-steemgig-helping-the-less-fortunate

So good!~ Thanks for doing this, and that sounds like a good plan, can't wait for the details!

I've sent the reward for this, and made a post about what you guys did here:

Sweet sweet!

Thanks you for your effort here!

We need to chat soon! Your persistence paid off in the most beautiful way. It made teary eyes, i tell you! This is exactly how we envisioned it. You so so so understood it, you and @kus-knee @virtualgrowth @stellabelle gosh you guys saw this vision! The vision is to touch lives in the real world. If you saw the last @steemgigs post you will understand better. The vision is great! Even on steemit, many need help. Help the last unmean-stweets post and you will see how many steemians have been suicidal! We have doctors everything on steemit. Things can start to get fixed even in small ways! We will move forward! Play with creativity and you have done just saw and the result is a beauty. Really teary eyes! Cos it means so much, you will understand this, if you saw where i am typing this from! But we pause on that! Let's go!

I sense your heart and desire for the world brother, and share it with you and everyone too. As you say, I know conditions aren't the greatest for many people, so thanks for helping inspire this #steemgig, you share in it's merit, and will benefit real people, even if only in a small way...

I'm on steemit.chat with the same name, so you can PM me anytime that suits you. If I'm afk I'll get it as soon as I can, or we can arrange a time.

Yes, we will talk! You and @kus-knee got the picture well.

Help isn't only monetary. Even on steemit, so so many steemians need help, so working on another series! It is still in testrun mode:

You're right, there are so many ways we can help each other. Inphiknit ways!~ Heheh!

That's a neat idea for a #steemgig. Although my pessimistic side right away said; "what about the liability?" But, I'm sure the docs can carefully word any responses to inquiries...

Nice idea, i donate all the time. I try to shop at thrift stores and such that donate even more. Thanks

Don't forget a post. Let's have even more impact with a #steemgigs post! Remember to use "steemit.com" to and your username, when you label the bags!

Every little deed makes a difference! Nice! Yw, and thank you too!

So good!~ Thanks for participating! I've sent the reward and made a post about what you guys did!

On it. Bagging up some old clothes that we were going to throw in the drop bins anyway! I'll take some pics and post them!

They're not HUGE bags, so I'll fill 3 or 4 ;)

Way to go!~~ I'm so happy you got your lovely kids involved and had a great day doing so!

Thanks so much!
