Calling all Africans to come join the community and help us grow and develop together to provide a better future for all Africans on steemit.
This will be something I do every week to help grow and gather the community. Please comment your username below and where you are from. Also join us on steemit chat (remember to use the same username) if your steemit chat username is different, it will be a lot harder to put you in the channel. If it is different then send me your steemit chat username.
If you are already in the community, please help me by finding others that belong in here and send me their names.
We have 180 users now, I have seen a huge increase in activity from all the users . Here is a list . If you are in this list please join please join steemit chat or message me your username (if you are not in the channels yet). Thank you to all those who helped put this list together.

All those from Africa please use the #africa tag.
Why are Communities Important?
It is quite simple: alone it is harder to learn and develop, but with the help of others. To illustrate this point: many new users join steemit, whether through a friend or some other means, they have not yet experienced how steemit works. They are told you can post whatever they want? So they do so, sadly they don't know any better and get flagged. Thus their steemit experience is negative and they leave.
Communities are there to help guild and support everyone in it, if this person above was in the community he/she would of easily been able to be lead right, had all their questions answered and would become an asset to the community and steemit.
Communities are a great thing as all those who are in them are different, they have different skills and information they can offer to others. A community that works together is strong and can do anything.
This Community
This community is strictly for any and all steemians that come from Africa. As this is just the start we will need to get all those involved to help find, grow and contribute to this community. I, with some others, will be providing some valuable information and tips for all those new to steemit in the community.
We will be leading and developing this community to make each users experience better. The object is to get as many active users on steemit to better steemit as well as strengthen and support all those who are in the community.
This community will be based on steemit chat (https://steemit.chat) where we will be answering any questions and helping all those inside it with the support they need. We ask you to tell all your friends and anyone you know that is from Africa to join this community and help each other out.
Project outcome so far:
As you can see from the list above there are many more who need to be added. There are also many steemians that still need to be found. Thank you to all those who are helping out and trying to find all those who belong in the community.
@vm2904 is now one of our newest moderators and it will be interesting to see any new ideas get introduced. Right now, since being set as a mod, @vm2904 has given me a few ideas without even telling me any. We have had a great descussion form 2 of our members, @maryfavour and @surpassinggoogle.
Stats:
At the moment we are sitting with 191 users added to the channels. We have an average of 20-30 new posts per day produced by the community. Submitted posts into the channels are mostly getting above $1(depending on quality) thus showing that members are voting on each others posts and supporting each other.

Steem chat doesn't have a functional mobile interface, and that's a big drawback in online goup meets. Take It to #Discord.

At the moment it's rainy and snowing a bit on the mountains. We really need a month of solid rain to beat the drought though. The provincial government is bringing in desalination plants ( Ships) that will be up and running by October so that Cape Town doesn't run dry.
