Welcome to the Unofficial Launch of The Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway!

Give, give, give! we all scream. But, how about having a chance to get something back?

"For only 1 $ HBD per week, all our supporters have a chance to win giveaway prizes totalling 50% of the $ HBD collected.

`Donations for the Week 1 giveaway are now unofficially open. See below for details`

To participate send 1 $ HBD to @combination. You can include the optional transfer memo Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway

~ News and Notice ~

The actual start will happen before this post pays out, so please be patient. But remember, entries are not limited to 1 per week.
We have completed a tool to use for verifiable RNG, the exact method is also described in the Details and Info Post. Wallet transactions will still be handled manually and this will be fine unless it really blows up.
We have already collected 3 $ HBD for the first draw. Don't worry, your places are reserved
We have also received '10' Hive in tips which will be considered 100% donations unless a refund is requested.
After week 1 we will include a supporter's history including account name, weeks participated and total HBD. We will also add a special category for those sending donations in Hive. Names can be excluded on request.
We are currently looking for endorsements for the charity. You don't need to give anything. Just get in touch and we will mention you in this post as a supporter.

~ Endorsements ~

Although the draw is transparent and provably fair and the charity is verified non-profit, we still feel we should mention our supporters, especially during the first few weeks to help build even more trust.

So far work on the Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway has been done by @papilloncharity who is beneficiary of the 50% donations, and @abitcoinskeptic who is helping with technical aspects of the draw.

~ This Week's Giveaway ~

It's a 50-50 draw!

1st place prize ~ 35%

2nd place prize ~ 15%

@papilloncharity ~ 50%

~Giving feels great but wining prizes feels almost just as good~!

~ Results and Past Info~

Coming Soon

Note, since this is the unofficial launch, results will arrive later than usual. Please be patient if you send $ HBD it will be recorded on the blockchain.

~ About the Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway ~

The Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway is a way to donate to verified charities on Hive that doesn't burden the reward pool.

This is a new way of doing things, so public resources like the reward pool or Hive DAO Proposal system don't need to be used. We feel receiving donations, and not relying on rewards or welfare, is more sustainable ~ Besides, the reward pool is for content and curation. And, the DAO is for the benefit of the Hive blockchain.

What you vote for is your choice and we don't want anyone to take that away from you. You can save your upvotes for content and authors you really like, or to focus on your curation rewards.

_{Upvotes on our posts are never required to participate but still appreciated to promote support and develop this initiative.}

~ What's in it for our supporters?~

Helping good causes feels good, but we understand that people work hard for their earnings on Hive. With the Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway, our supporters receive 50% of all $ HBD collected for the giveaway back in $ HBD prizes.

The giveaway prizes are our way to thank the supporters of Weekly Hive Charity Giveaway and to make it worth their while. Besides, with 50% of all money collected going towards the giveaway prizes that's the same as curation reward. It's similar to other major charity giveaways!

It's simple, you can earn $ HBD by posting on Hive, you can then invest your rewards in a worthy cause and for a chance to win more.

Participated, plus added @papilloncharity and @combination to my auto-vote rules, that way I can still support even if I miss a draw 😉

All the best!
