Want to know something great about Steemit? It allows you to accomplish so much - if only you have the vision and motivation to do it. One such example of this is one of our witnesses here in #thealliance - @sircork. I'm not sure who initially cued him to our presence on Steemit, but when he approached me about joining, we both had a mutual respect for each other. Even more so when he said to point my votes to @youarehope instead of himself.
Who Is @sircork?
The ice really broke for Corky when he brought up that he knew one of our long time supporters, @eturnerx, whom I hold in very high regard. Through the conversations, I learned the he has quite the knack for construction. He's out here building some great things, a few of which we'll get into shortly. What I want people to recognize is the size of this guys heart. He gives selflessly so often, it's amazing he has time to do anything else! Throw that in to being a daddy, and we know he's in the right place and are proud to have him in the family.
@youarehope
I mentioned a second ago that he has a huge heart and most people don't realize the truth behind that statement. One of the things he has, and is consistently building through Steemit, is called @youarehope. You Are H.O.P.E. is a charitable organization that has #thealliance fully behind its endeavors. From providing medicines and food in Venezuela with the help of @malos10, @rapo & @bigdude on over to school supplies and materials for the needy in Nigeria with @kofpato. The transparency he provides is what makes this the most legitimate charity on Steemit. Major props brother.
@steemstarnetwork
Most people don't know this, but @sircork is the one who built MSP - Waves Radio. YES. Now, he has branched off on his own again and has given rise to the new Steem Star Network. This is a full media broadcasting station with live stream shows, music, and even movies,

We Love You @sircork
We've been blessed to have such an upstanding Steemitizen join our ranks. Go vote for him as a witness if you haven't already. Seriously, tap or click here to do so now. Really looking forward to hearing all about your up and coming world tour too! Better be bringing us back some souvenirs. Bwaha! We appreciate your commitment and dedication to the platform and family Corky. On behalf of all of our fab fam, let me say thank you for being YOU and We Love You @sircork!
Wow.
What do I say to all that? I'm not sure there are words for the honor and flattery you have bestowed upon me.
The fact is I am just a facilitator.
Yes, I did the techy things to build two 24/7 streaming networks based around the steem ecosystem.
Yes I founded the first steem blockchain exclusive, worldwide international humanitarian aid foundation working in multiple countries at once to bring food, medicine, clothing, building repairs, hygiene supplies and more to orphans, homeless, sick, dying, impoverished or weather emergency affected folks.
But I - ME - this guy - didn't really do shit. I just started directing traffic. The burden of the work is in those cars around me.....
Like @malos10 in venezuela, or @jassennessaj and @bigdude in the philippines, or @Misterakpan, @kofpato, @aydayodeji, @tyrex and @steem4depoor in nigeria and ghana and @nichi in peurto rico and gosh well, there are over 400 members in the @YouAreHOPE Foundation discord and each contributes in some way.
Fuel for this project is provided by the loving and generous steem community via donations, delegations (we need more of each please!), fund raising, resteems, helping publish and spread news and awareness and just plain old encouragement. The real gas that keeps us moving. Your love.
Please allow me to return that love right back to you all. It's not defective, I just suddenly find myself overflowing with it, since you've given me so much.
You deserve all the accolades boss, You have a rare heart, people like you are angels in human form. We are here for you
I cannot accept accolades for posting to earn money, when YOU are the one walking into a Malaria-infested village to dig ditches with teenagers in the heat and medical risk you face there.
Nope, this is all YOU. <3
See what I mean? How can you not like this S.O.B.??
Congrats!
Thanks!
Cork is the reason I even started my podcast show in the first place! He not only convinced me to go on the air, he literally talked me through every thing--all the software, all the streaming info--I needed to learn in order to be a host.
I swear, the man never sleeps. He is constantly working to help one person or another. I'm proud to be able to say, "Sircork knows me!" Haha.
I'm proud to say IVE GOT LENADR ON MY STATION AND NO ONE ELSE CAN SAY THAT!
PS (It's not a "podcast" - it's a live streaming broadcast station 24/7 ;) )
Awwww... blush
Great testimonial to the size of the heart he has. Thank you for stopping in and sharing that with us :)
Sircorky is a a pretty cool guy down to earth dude with some smarts and such, though i have yet to officially meet him i have been in rooms with him here and there and he is pretty cool beans with everything, whatever that thing is. Word to my homie
be well
@sircork
"Be well"
someone was paying attention in class ;)
Thank you for being like, supah kewl yerself and stuff!
<3
Your awesome 🌟
No U!
I just listened to Cabinet of Curiosities this is so my type of show wht a great platform to speak to people I found it so interesting at the same time some of the comments I laughed so hard. I am so looking forward to next weeks show.
Thank you so much! It was great having you there. You fit in perfectly!!
interesting. i added you a few weeks back. and now i realize you and @patrice do a radio show, i totally need to listen in soon :)
Yay! What a wonderful feature! I'll just leave a little love letter here, shall I?
@sircork, you've become one of my favourite people on Steemit and Discord. You're a pro DJ and know how to have a good time (did someone say Pirate Party?), yet you're also able to be serious and encourage feedback (town hall). Of course, your work with @youarehope is where you got to my heart, because I can tell you care so much, and you're doing something real to help, bringing people together to pool resources and make the world a better place. Massive waves of love comin' at'cha!!! Keep being you! 💖
That. That just filled my tank for another month! <3
My wife just turned me on to him a week or so ago, he is really doing some amazing things with steemit!
Tell your wife I said Hi!
:P
<3
:)
You sly dog ;)
haha. Sircork turns everyone on
hahaha - I got this joke from a friend of mine - everytime I would tell him about a woman in my life, he was so QUICK to say, "tell her I said hi"
And it was always so fast... it cracked me up everytime :)
lmao. I'm gonna have to add that to the "repertoire"
That's what I like about this Steemit group. It has such fine role models for us little Minnows to learn from and aspire to do more than just look at dollars and cents. I'd like my efforts to count more than that and you guys set the bar pretty high.
Well thank you. You would fit in well I think. We have several stackers in our ranks already and you're quite the writer. Should consider applying :)
I understand there is an Application Process, (nothing really to do with acquiring some egg from an alien bird). I've read lots, but never wrote before other than my first 5 Steemit blogs and a College course many years ago. I got some polishing to do and I got plenty to learn about the Steemit platform before I feel confident enough to making an application. Following @sircork
Great featured member, Alliance and YAH, good stuff folks
I can't think of a more deserving steemian, he is truly an amazing man!
OMG thank you! <3
I am so grateful to you for your help. I have another YAH post project that I could use some help with - a one-time thing, if you are interested catch me ousside, howbowdah? :D
@sircork is one of the first guys i met in steemit and on discord. He became a big brother and a good friend. Up til now, he is someone i can reach out to anytime and he will oblige. His enthuasiasm to help the needy and bring hope to them is amazing. @sircork, you deserve all the encomium.Thanks for being you.
Aww yer the sweetest - it's in your name! I adore you!
I hope you and your mother are both doing great!
I am a fairly proficient English speaker and I had to look up the word encomium. Dang, GREAT word! Thank you!
<3
amazing! :D im very happy to read about this kind of posts, cause of that some other people know about the power of this comunity and the real changes that we can do it each one in society, with our organization and good vibes, together we can do it. yeah lml
@thealliance During my time at Steemit I have learned a lot and this has changed the way I see things, everything comes at the time no matter the time or the place everything depends on the opportunities that may arise and the ability we have to take advantage of them 100% .
We can build a tower of ideas and turn them into reality, if we focus on what we want it sounds like something that only happens in movies but the truth is that in Steemit dreams can come true, with motivation and vision to the future to achieve what we want.
Within Steemit there are endless projects that have great ideas, others that are in full growth as well as some projects with more humanitarian purposes that really leave the name of steemit at the top of the world filling the entire community with pride . These projects generate enough energy in this platform to continue working on innovative projects. This brings a great responsibility, since our most loyal followers are waiting for good content and ideas that can help us grow as a group and we can share this knowledge with the other users that make up the Steemit family.
Thankful for the @youarehope Project for being the house of dreams where we have that freedom to express ourselves 100% without any barriers, that great dreamer @sircork who has a huge faith and loves what he does, as well as me a Dude Heart that dream of building a tower of ideas and turn them into reality, sounds like something that only happens in movies but the truth is that in Steemit dreams can come true, with motivation and vision to achieve what we want.
It is an Honor to have known you @ sirork not yet in Person, but you are one of those human beings with a heart full of love and faith! Here in Venezuela and in the rest of the world you are changing lives, may God bless you my good friend!
Two days behind on comments and upvotes, my own personal blockchain needs a rebuild I think. I can't think of a more deserving person to follow, thoroughly nice guy and does so many amazing charitable works with his @youarehope charity. The more people who support these charitable works the better the world will be.
