i love to help other needy peoples but i have never took a selfie or clicked any picture to show that i am helping...i may not get any reward by not providing any video of my kindness and humbleness in this contest...even though i will always offer my helping hands to the needy ones...not just to be rewarded in this contest...every person should help others if they need you...your one helping hand may showers happiness in their lifes....and the God will reward you for this...i love to help others who is needy..it gives me happiness from the bottom of my heart...:)
Great heart, I can understand not wanting to be on film I could make an exception if you just record what you're doing and its believable that its your original video with no editing stolen footage
yeah you are right its easy to say that you are humble and shairing but no one do believe if they didn't see that actually doing...And okay thanku for that exception @shairingsociety now i am looking forward, definitely try to avail a video which you can rely upon...:)
i do help to the needy ones but through my own pocket money..which i do not gets much as you can understand that being a student my parents does not allow much but yes whatever amount i gets i use to give a part of that money or sometimes how much do i have at that moment to provide...whether its less or more...:)
may be the video which i post would not be like offering much to be consider me as a helping person but still it doesn't matter to me to...if you don't consider that a good charity then that would be okay..no issue...i am actually liking the concept that by this concept many of were trying to proving help to the ones who actually needs it, that is the best thing for me...loving it feeling really happy...i appriciate your work...lots of love to you..keep doing keep helping...:)
Thank you for making this world a better place by helping others.
:) thanks buddy...i love to help people...may i wish to get alot of money to provide some facility of food and clothing to the needy ones...i would get even more happy...
i would like to ask you also to help your nearby needy peoples...
my pleasure...:)
I am sponsoring this contest, good luck to everyone!
Hi @mikeparker
This sounds like it has potential!
Maybe ask for #sharingsociety so you can find entries easier?
Remind me on Boxing Day to resteem - got a feeling it'll be family time the next 36 hours.
Good luck!
Hey great idea, Thank you. When's boxing day?
26th :) 27th might be even better, cheers!
whoops its days later, here's your REMINDER!
good luck :)
What a wonderful way to help the community!
Thank you :) Let us know if you have any ideas! Merry Christmas
Thanks again for calling attention to the plight of the needy. My husband and I gave a donation to a local community ministry. Our post documenting this can be seen here: https://steemit.com/contest/@atmemestable/sharing-society-usd1-000-holiday-contest-my-family-s-small-contribution-to-helping-the-homeless
We are exploring ways to give monthly. @Sharingsociety, keep on doing great work to make a difference in the world.
Thats really thoughtful of you.
Anyone has a great chance; there's not much audience for our brand yet
I pray I win.

poetry for sharing society...................................
If old kriss kringle should forget
to travel christmas eve,
i tell you now, I think next day
the little folks would grieve.
a here wouldn’t be a single toy,
a single box or book,
and not a bit of candy in
their stockings when they’d look
because, you see, rikss kringle has
a “corner” on these things,
‘Tis he, and he alone, who in
the night our presents brings.
then let us all try to avert
this sad catastrophe,
and hope kriss kringle may at least
thank you for that! but who's kriss kringle? What's his origin
Hi @sharingsociety ,
Does running a Fundraiser on Facebook for a non-profit count towards any of these qualifications? I have been running one for the past 3 days and if I was eligible I would donate half the winnings to the non-profit.
Thanks,
Quarterlifehuman
Anything can count if it shows noticeable help to people, just make a video and follow the rules
That is nice contest,tnx for sharing. Upvoted :)
Lol kind of useful

💛 Thanks for Sharing 💛Tipp Tipp
What a wonderful contest. I would participate but I have done my giving this Christmas season without filming it but I am looking forward to seeing what others do. It is tricky to film here being such a small community and everybody knowing everyone else, posting it on YouTube would be a sure way to get in trouble with tribal elders. Merry Christmas and happy giving to all.
Thank you; What state are you in?
I am in Northern Alaska.
