RE: Charity drives on Steem, will not tolerate "Giving 100% of the liquid reward..." (while silently keeping the rest out of pure convenience/greed)
This is hard sir, @steem-lagos is a community page based in Nigeria and we just heard of a lil girl in Australia who needs a spinal surgery of over $100k in cost, so are we going to get downvoted for raising funds to such cause?
If there was a way to send the SteemPower share of the reward, we would have done it; but we are not Devs or Techy team and this would be a hard blow on the Good intent we have sir!
Not fair sir. @transisto is not even remotely suggesting that. Please go back and read the post. He is saying and I quote, "From now on, If you are running a charity drive through upvotes I would like you to a have a plan to eventually send to the charity parts the Steem power you received." He simply wants to see full disclosure up front as regards your intentions on the distribution of the funds. It's only common sense and it is a fundamental requirement of all charities in the fiat world! It's to protect true humanitarian events - like yours - not to negate them.
Oh, bless you for the clarity sir.
We do not run a charity on this page, we just feel sad and wishes to help the lil girl from our end.
It makes my hear weep when I hear and see stories such as yours. And yet for the first time, I see an opportunity where we can collectively not only to work to alleviate suffering in an individual case but also on a grand scale as well. We need to do what we can now for sure but we also need to establish the protocols to get everyone involved. I'm confident it will with a little twigging here and there. Good luck. God bless!
