Good morning guys, this is @bait002 the founder of the offline minnow school where minnows are mentored and groomed. Yesterday I talked about how we have benefited from an anonymous donation. Today, I will be talking about the impact of that donation and where to go from there.

Few months ago, I contacted some top steemians about the offline minnow school initiative. That was during the time when we had just started. We got a lot of negative response that hurts and would discouraged anyone. I happen to live in a part of the world where existence isn't really bearable for most people. And that has been the drive for most of us here to keep moving.

People sing the song of a corrupt government all over the place but at least some care to provide basic needs. Here, the only means for an ordinary man to thrive is on the basis of voluntarism. This is why steemit has been a game changer. It has taught us the beauty of being there for others even when it doesn't pay. Also, through steemit, we have learnt about the possibilities and beauty of having a community without an actual place.

The Offline Minnow School plays the role that the so-called societies' elites wouldn't play. We fill the schism in the face of many oppositions and we are never going to stop.

the core of our mission is to put an end to under-utilized human resources; we strive to make these young people become the best that they can be.

WHAT EXACTLY DO WE DO?

PHASE 1:

We in this phase train some minnows at our offline hub to help attain self-sustenance. These minnows will then work with us as team, reproducing other minnows. Currently, we have just wrapped up with phase 1. And phase 2 which is more demanding kicked off last week.

PHASE 2:

This basically is the core of the vision and where the absolute idea lies and it goes as follows;

• SKILL ACQUISITION PROJECTS: where various skills will be taught to foster emergence of new entrepreneurs that thrive on voluntarism.

• THE MINNOW SCHOOL TALENT HUNT: we greatly hope to give minnows who are not really gifted writers but have other gifts such as singing, painting, dancing, acting a platform to express themselves and get their creativity beyond their minds. Basically, we are giving these young people a voice and ultimately awaken the writer in them.

• THE MINNOW SCHOOL ART/MUSIC EXHIBITIONS: here gifted young people will get to showcase their talents and the value they have to offer to the community. We will be sponsoring art projects and professional music careers will emerge with this.

I'm sure that sounds great. However, not many things can be done in the face of a huge constrain. If you love the work that we are doing support the OFFLINE MINNOW SCHOOL CREW anyway you feel you can.

I do not know who the initial donor was, but we're truly grateful and we urge you to stay tunned to see what we will make of it in few weeks as we resume our offline campaigns. THANK YOU SIR/MA! A very big thanks also goes to all those who support in upvote and moral advice. One thing is certain, it can only get better.
