Call To Action - Please, Help Family In Need [Report No. 5] - $596.49 Collected So far

in #donation6 years ago (edited)

Dear friends,

the charity fundraising campaign to help the family in need is at the end of its second week. The rewards from all my articles in the last 15 days are accounted for. The score so far is $596.49 collected.


Two weeks ago I told you a sad story about the family in a dire situation.

Please, read the article about the family Štampek. They are forced to live in harsh conditions without proper electricity and running water. They need an amount of 16,000 Euros to pay for the power line to reach their house.

I decided to start a donation campaign here on Steem platform. I vouched to donate all liquid rewards that I will receive in the period from February 27th 2018 up to March 13th 2018.

As it has turned out I will also add all the rewards from articles in the second week of the campaign. This practically means three weeks of collecting the rewards.

I also decided to keep it all as transparent and public as possible. Regular reports are a vital part of this transparency.

This article is the fifth full situation report about the funds collected so far. Please read also the previous full and interim reports: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | I1 | I2 | I3.


Funds Collected So far

All collected funds are accounted for in this Google Spreadsheet.

After fourteen days the total collected sum is $596.49.

Since the value of both Steem and SBD have slightly risen I remain optimistic that the final turnout will be around 600, maybe even 700 US Dollars.


The campaign is in the mature phase with no additional exposure. I will make a separate article about the visibility and the consequences when all this is over.

I would like to thank Busy.org team, the makers of the best Steem frontend there is, for generously upvoting most of the articles. Thank you very much! Without you, this story wouldn't be complete.



The Original Announcement Follows ...



What Will I do?

I promise you that I will donate all liquid funds acquired through awards from articles on this platform in the period from today, February 27th 2018 up to March 13th 2018.

This means last week of rewards and all rewards from articles in the following week. 14 days! Included rewards received from @isotonic and @runningproject.


What Can You Do?

You can do many wonderful things!

Before I start numbering them, let me say that your participation is your decision alone. Nobody will force you into anything. You decide whether you will help.

  1. You can donate SBD and Steem directly to my account.
    I will make certain that every donated amount will be accounted for. In return,I will resteem and fully upvote at least one of your articles. Please use memo #donation when you make a transfer. Thank you!
  2. You can upvote and resteem this article and the forthcoming reports of this donation campaign.
    This way you will spread the word and we will, hopefully, reach a bigger audience and attract more donors.
  3. You can donate directly via SEPA transaction
    Details on how to do that are published in the footnotes of this article.

How Will I Conduct This Campaign?

  1. I will publish regular reports on funds collected with all the details
  2. I will maintain a publicly viewable Google Docs spreadsheet with all the funds collected and regularly publish the link to it
  3. At the end of fortnight period, I will, in a most profitable way possible at the time, convert collected funds into Euros and send them to a bank account where the funds for the Štampek family are gathered
  4. I will document and publicize this transaction

In a word, it will be a 100% transparent #fundraising for a good cause!
