RE: Can Steemit help with the humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico?

in #steemit7 years ago

I have family from Puerto Rico. It took years for Puerto Rico to fix the electrical infrastructure damage from past hurricanes. At least, we are seeing some of this dysfunction. It's disappointing that most media outlets aren't covering the plight of our fellow citizens, in Puerto Rico.
Could this be the test case for SMT fundraiser? Do we ask an organizations that we want to help to have a steem account, or do form an intermediary organization that handles exchange of the smt to relief organization? Another possibility is form a steem funded relief/aid organization; I don't really like this idea; there already a lot of relief organizations.
I could see blockchain technology helping to ensure delivery of contracted items to the people, but I don't think the technology would make the delivery more efficient though.

I'm sorry to hear that, but thanks for the thoughtful comment.
