RE: The Pineapple fund has donated $5 million to a basic income experiment in Kenya

in #charity7 years ago

This is too good to be true:

Two weeks ago someone on Reddit made a post announcing that he will be donating 5057 BTC to charity, the post can be found here. When Bitcoin was worth ~$17,500 that was around $86 million the anonymous donator had commited to giving away to charity and to this day over $15 million has been given away. The user mentioned that he has invested in BTC very early and that his goals in life are not about being mega rich even though he now has more money than he can spend and that's why he wanted to make a change in the world and donate it and is accepting suggestions on where to direct his donations to. If you have any good suggestions in mind feel free to go to https://pineapplefund.org/ and fill in the form.

Not matter what we have done to this world, we as humans have not failed.

I fully agree with you on it and strongly believe that Steemit can play this role in a very good way. Actually, I have seen a post here at Steemit of a homeless person who was no more homeless just because he wrote a blog here and in one of his posts, he shared the link of his gofundme campaign. Later on, he put in his bio that he was no more a homeless guy. This living example tells us a lot about the hidden potential of Steemit in terms of being a charity platform.

Have you heard of this charity yet?
No, but thanks for sharing with us.
How do you see the Steem currency being able to change the world for the better?
I guided a couple of people about this platform back in July and now they are making more money at Steemit per month than what they have been making through their professional lives. Just imagine what will they be making by the mid of 2018?

Excellent post @acidyo. You've been inspiring me through your posts and vision. Salute. Shared.

Steem On!
